Description

British Sea Powers new, fifth album Machineries Of Joy will be released on Rough Trade Records. The album release will be accompanied by a full UK tour.

Machineries Of Joy was written in the Berwyn mountains in north Wales and recorded in Brighton with Dan Smith and mixer Ken Thomas (David Bowie, Sigur Ros).

Wed like to think the album is warm and restorative, says singer Yan. Various things are touched on in the words Franciscan monks, ketamine, French female bodybuilders turned erotic movie stars. The world often seems a mad, hysterical place at the moment. You cant really be oblivious to that, but wed like the record to be an antidote a nice game of cards in pleasant company.

The LP format includes a copy of the album on CD.
