Description
Erasure (Andy Bell and Vince Clarke) release their seventeenth studio album, World Be Gone, on the Mute record label.
World Be Gone is the follow up to 2014s The Violet Flame and follows the bands recent 30th anniversary celebrations.
The new album sees the award-winning songwriters in a more reflective mood, giving the world and recent political upheavals a thoughtful examination and, as highlighted on the painted artwork showing a ships masthead rising up from being submerged in the stormy waters, looking forward to the future.
Explains Vince Clarke, Obviously the current political climate lends itself to lots of ideas, Andy Bell continues, I think theres an underswell of opinion, and people are slowly waking up. Im hoping that people will take the album in a positive way, that theyll use it as optimistic rabble-rousing music.
