Los Campesinos! at the Moth Club, London (Alberto Pezzali for Live4ever)
With Sick Scenes out this month, Los Campesinos! have posted its latest track The Fall Of Home.
Sessions for the collective’s sixth studio album took place in Fridao, Portugal during last summer’s Euro 2016 tournament – as lead guitarist Tom further explains:
“This was the longest the band had gone without releasing any music. That was for a whole bunch of reasons, but I also deliberately tried to resist putting ideas together for as long as possible so I could feel excited about writing again.”
“I was touring with Perfume Genius in 2015 and I think a combination of long van rides listening to music with too much time to (over)think, as well as getting to play guitar on PG’s beautiful and weird, affecting songs every night got me all excited about working on ideas again.”
“So halfway through the tour we had a fortnight off in Seattle where I put together all the ideas I’d been collecting and started the process of a new album.”
