To wet your appetite for such exciting news, the band share the first single from the album, 1998. Possibly the band’s most melodic cut of music yet, 1998 share’s an affinity with the best music made with guitars, drums and bass. Yes, as the song intones, ‘it’s somehow cathartic’ . Oh yeah, and did we mention uplifting?

A video accompanies 1998, with Black Twig commenting “It’s not about nostalgia, it’s more like a visual memory. It is what it is. Shot on digital8 with our friends in Helsinki. We love you!”
