Aldous Harding annonserar femte albumet 'Train on the Island' ute 8 maj

Nya Zeelands sångerska och låtskrivare Aldous Harding har annonserat sitt femte studioalbum, Train on the Island, som släpps den 8 maj via 4AD. Uppföljaren till 2022:s Warm Chris återförenar henne med producenten John Parish och inkluderar debutsingeln 'One Stop', förhandsbeställningsalternativ och en utökad turné i Storbritannien, Europa och Nordamerika.

Aldous Harding har avslöjat detaljer om sitt nya album Train on the Island, inspelat på Rockfield Studios i Monmouth, Wales – samma plats som hennes tidigare skivor – och producerat av den långvariga samarbetspartnern John Parish (PJ Harvey, Dry Cleaning). Albumet rymmer bidrag från pedal steel-spelaren Joe Harvey-Whyte, harpspelaren Mali Llewelyn, synthartisten Thomas Poli, trummisen Sebastian Rochford (Polar Bear) och multiinstrumentalisten Huw Evans (H. Hawkline) på bas, sång, gitarr och orgel. Det finns tillgängligt för förhandsbeställning i format inklusive CD, standard svart vinyl och begränsad upplaga blå vinyl. The lead single 'One Stop' features a stripped-back arrangement with a piano motif and Harding's multi-tracked vocals, creating a wiry and enigmatic atmosphere. The accompanying video, directed by Michelle Henning, shows Harding performing an abstract dance inside a giant metal tub. Den fullständiga låtlistan är: 1. I Ate the Most 2. One Stop 3. Train on the Island 4. Worms 5. Venus in the Zinnia 6. If Lady Does It 7. San Francisco 8. What Am I Gonna Do? 9. Riding That Symbol 10. Coats Harding har utökat sin turné på grund av efterfrågan och lagt till en tredje konsert i London på Barbican den 31 maj. Den brittiska och europeiska etappen inleds 25 maj på Brighton Dome, följt av Southampton, Cambridge, Bristol, Glasgow, Dublin, Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham och London-datumen. Nordamerikaturnén startar 9 september i Philadelphia och avslutas 30 september i Los Angeles. Albumet följer Warm Chris (2022), som fick fyra stjärnor i NME-recension för sin 'sparsamma och medvetna instrumentering' och Hardings desorienterande röst. Singlarna 'Lawn' och 'Fever' förhandsvisade det; Pitchfork placerade 'Fever' på 65:e plats på listan över 100 bästa låtarna från 2020-talet hittills. Harding samarbetade nyligen med Sleaford Mods på 'Elitest G.O.A.T.' och spelade två utsålda konserter på Barbican 2023.
