ARAB STRAP - HALF-TOLD TALES

Arab Strap’s ninth album, Half-Told Tales, adds another chapter to a catalogue built on emotional candour, dry humour and uneasy beauty. Following I'm totally fine with it ???? don't give a fuck anymore ????, the duo continue to balance Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton’s familiar mix of wit and darkness, moving between hushed introspection and moments of unexpected force. Featuring the single 'You You You', the album stretches their sound in new directions, including what the band describe as a “disco-metal incantation that might make you dance”, without losing the atmosphere and tension that has long defined their work. Recorded with longtime collaborator Paul Savage, Half-Told Tales finds Arab Strap exploring new corners of their sound while remaining unmistakably themselves.Arab Strap’s ninth album, Half-Told Tales, adds another chapter to a catalogue built on emotional candour, dry humour and uneasy beauty.
