Simple Minds – Sacrosanct (Green LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Simple Minds built their reputation in the early 1980s on a sound that bridged post-punk atmosphere and arena-sized ambition, with records like *New Gold Dream* and *Sparkle in the Rain* earning them a devoted following on both sides of the Atlantic long before "Don't You (Forget About Me)" made them household names. Kerr and Burchill have kept that original creative partnership intact for over five decades, a rarity in rock that gives their work a continuity and trust few bands can claim.
Following on from 2025’s third installment in Simple Minds’ live album series, and the joint memoir celebrating the lifelong friendship between the band’s singer Jim Kerr and guitarist Charlie Burchill, Our Secrets Are The Same, which was featured in both Uncut magazine and Rough Trade’s ‘Books of The Year,’ Simple Minds return with their 19th studio album, Sacrosanct. Their first album of new material since 2022’s Direction Of The Heart, its eight outstanding songs, finds lifelong collaborators Kerr and Burchill in supremely confident form, on one of their most vital albums in decades, one which recaptures the magic and majesty of the band’s early years.
