New Music Friday has brought Teenage Fanclub‘s Nothing Lasts Forever LP, a record that the band has described as being ‘reflective’ as they head into a more relaxed period of their lives.
“These songs are definitely personal,” Norman Blake revealed. “You’re getting older, you’re going into the cupboard getting the black suit out more often.”
Thoughts of mortality and the idea of the light must have been playing on our minds a lot. The songs on the last record were influenced by the breakup of my marriage. It was cathartic to write those songs. These new songs are reflective of how I’m feeling now, coming out of that period. They’re fairly optimistic, there’s an acceptance of a situation and all of the experience that comes with that acceptance.
