Thanks to everyone that pre-ordered the new Arab Strap Half-Told LP .. the kind folk at Rock Action Records have sent us Signed prints to go with your copies .. we have a couple spare which will be available to order online from Thur evening.
Arab Strap
Scotland's incomparable and influential are back with their ninth studio album 'Half-Told Tales': almost exactly 30 years since the beloved duo’s first ever single, 'The First Big Weekend', was released. The follow-up to 2024's acclaimed 'I'm totally fine with it 👍 don't give a f**k anymore 👍' , 'Half-Told Tales' is rich with Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton’s trademark wit and dark humour, whilst creating moments from quiet brooding to a self-described “disco-metal incantation that might make you dance” . Including the single 'You You You', the album was recorded with long-time collaborator Paul Savage (Mogwai, Belle and Sebastian, Franz Ferdinand).
Sparks - Live on the Moon
We have also have Sparks - Live on the Moon postcard sets to give away with all preordered copies .. again we have a couple of spares which will be available to order online from Thur evening.

Following last year's world tour, Sparks were invited to perform a one-off show on the Moon - the first band in history to do so! Includes an introduction and outro from Cate Blanchett, who accompanied the band on their lunar trip.
