Description
Still rooted in their characteristic smoky, faded glamour, The Saxophones forthcoming album, No Time for Poetry, expands the natural breeziness of 2023s To Be A Cloud with a sense of angst and tension, to subtly question the current state of the world and their place within it. Husband-and-wife duo Alexi Erenkov and Alison Alderdice are augmented by their regular collaborator Richard Laws on bass, synthesizers and keyboards, as well as multi-instrumentalist Frank Maston, who provided production support. Evocative imagery and themes define the album whilst, musically, the spectre of mid-period Leonard Cohen hangs over the songs. Thats the biggest touchstone, says Alexi, the kind of dystopian songs he was writing with a satirical attitude helped set the darker political tone of this record.
LP pressed onto Crystal Clear vinyl.
Available to independent retailers on Turquoise Marble coloured vinyl LP.
