It is likely the album will come in the last quarter.

It will be very interesting to see how the new album will be received.

Their last album didnt sell nearly aswell as the others,.

Their last album was released in Q2 if I remember correctly. A Q4 will give them more Christmas sales as well as more promo opportunities. It’ll be interesting to see if they go back to their old sound or stick with the sound from their last album or something different?

for what I read they're not going back to the album 1 sound and stickling to album 3 sound, anyone can confirm?

 

they've had quite the long break this time, so hopefully enough time to write great songs (again)

in the third album they kinda changed musical direction, abandoning the banjos and replacing them with guitars

cost them a lot of fans I'd say + there songs were not as good

The third album is really quite underrated!

 

Yes, there’s nothing ground-breaking there and it largely doesn’t even touch the first album. However, I still ADORE Believe and Ditmas is also fantastic.

 

They’re kind of stuck in a whole because they were criticsed for the overuse of banjos and Babel did feel like rejects from Sigh Mo More (which it essentially was anyway) but then the guitars angered all the fans.

Imho they didn't need that radical departure in sound, they need to find a balance, some banjos is nice, too many banjos I agree is annoying, but they didn't need to go from 100% to 0% banjos, of course they alienated a lot of fans

agreed the lead single Believe was pretty good and a couple of singles were not half bad

but there was nothing remotely on par with Little Lion Man or Winter winds

 

but I'm still hopeful and hoping they've had plenty of time to work on songs without hurry

album is called Delta out Nov 16

 

first single

"The Wolf" and "Believe" from "Wilder Mind" I still thoroughly enjoy! Loved them at the time. Became karaoke staples too :P

 

This new one isn't hitting on first listen, but "Believe" was the same, I went on to love that one, and it feels like a similar structure.

These guys came back out of nowhere and the albums out soon too!! Class to see, Q4 needed more big returns as I'm sure we'll have Adele in 2019!!

 

So are they still big enough to get a instant A list of playlist add tomorrow?

Can anyone else hear a slight hint of U2 in this or is it just me?

Yes it reminds me of a bit of 'Where The Streets Have No Name'.
