Belle And Sebastian – Girls In Peacetime Want To Dance (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Stuart Murdoch and company have always written for the misfits and dreamers, but this 2015 effort finds the Glasgow band pushing further into electronic textures and four-on-the-floor rhythms than anything in their catalog reaching back to Tigermilk. The five-year gap between albums gave the band room to stretch, and the collaboration with Allen yielded some of the most sonically adventurous work of their career without sacrificing the literary intimacy that made them cult favorites in the first place.
Girls In Peacetime Want To Dance is the long-awaited follow-up to 2010’s Write About Love. Produced and mixed at Maze Studios in Atlanta by Ben H. Allen III, best known for his work with Gnarls Barkley, Animal Collective, and Raury, among others, the band – who have been listening to things like vintage Detroit techno and Giorgio Moroder – have brought a dance-party element (and a disco song about Sylvia Plath) into their gorgeous tales of sensitive souls navigating a world gone awry. It is perhaps the most inspired and wide-reaching album Belle and Sebastian have ever made.
