The Twilight Sad release tour EP
The Twilight Sad are releasing a limited edition CD with Fat Cat Records, “to help fund their tour with Mogwai.” Titled The Twilight Sad Killed My Parents And Hit The Road, the disc will be out on CD and digital on December 8. The title of the disc continues the reflection of a homicidal adolescent in rural Scotland drowned in their dark noise-driven sounds.
The eleven track disc is “a collection of covers, instrumentals, previously unreleased material and live tracks recorded at the ABC, Glasgow.” Several songs are covers of Joy Division, The Smiths, Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Andy MacFarlane recorded The Wea-ther Is Bad for Semiconductor‘s Brilliant Noise, “a film pieced together from archive NASA footage of the sun’s surface.” (Wikipedia)
