“We’re trying to do something different. People forget that music doesn’t have to be just bass, guitar and drums. It can be just as loud and exciting with glockenspiel and trumpet” - Broken Records
“How Nirvana might sound had they formed in Belarus instead of Seattle” - Q, Jan 2009
Hotly-tipped Scottish seven-piece Broken Records release their debut album Until The Earth Begins To Part on June 1st 2009.
The group, who formed in Edinburgh at the end of 2006, have already been tipped for greatness by publications as diverse as NME, Q, The Word, The Sun, The Fly, News Of The World, Clash and Drowned in Sound. A series of three independently released singles released in 2008 led NME to call them “an incredible proposition – set to go stellar as soon as they decide on a lucky label to sign to”.
The album features ten tracks and was recorded in Monnow Valley studio in Monmouth with producer Ian Caple.
The tracklisting is:
Nearly Home
If The News Makes You Sad, Don’t Watch It
Until The Earth Begins To Part
A Promise
Thoughts On A Picture
