Posted July 22, 20241 yr Bastille have just announced a new album! '&' (pronounced 'Ampersand') is out later this year, and is being released in four parts. The first part is out on Friday.
July 25, 20241 yr Author '"&" (Ampersand)' seems to be the official name of the album on streaming platforms. It's out in full on October 25th! Tracklisting: 1. Intros & Narrators 2. Eve & Paradise Lost 3. Emily & Her Penthouse In The Sky 4. Blue Sky & The Painter 5. Leonard & Marianne 6. Marie & Polonium 7. Red Wine & Wilde 8. Seasons & Narcissus 9. Drawbridge & The Baroness 10. The Soprano & Midnight Wonderings 11. Essie & Paul 12. Mademoiselle & The Nunnery Blaze 13. Zheng Yi Sao & Questions For Her 14. Telegraph Road 1977 & 2024 Tracks 1,2,3 and 8 are out tomorrow.
July 25, 20241 yr Interesting! Looking at the tracklist I did wonder if this would be a bit more experimental from them but from the trailer it does sound like it'll just be more focussed on storytelling.
July 26, 20241 yr I'm liking the idea of a more relaxed album. I am a bit concerned though at this being a bit too constantly chill or acoustic. Maybe Part One was intentionally that way with little feature in percussions. Edited July 26, 20241 yr by All★bySmashMouth
July 29, 20241 yr Author They're all quite folky and different for Bastille, but I'm really enjoying the change in style. Dan's always been a beautiful writer, and it really shines here in comparison to the last couple of poppy albums (as much as I enjoyed them too). 'Emily & Her Penthouse In The Sky' is my favourite of the four so far, I think.
July 31, 20241 yr I love Bastille usually but I'm not feeling these songs as much, I know they're deliberately less commercial though so maybe I just need to give them a couple of listens before they hit me.
July 31, 20241 yr An Ed Sheeran influenced album title?! Edit: Dobbo already said it! Edited July 31, 20241 yr by TheSnake
