One of Britain’s best love bands Mystery Jets have released their new single Telomere as the first taster of their upcoming album “Curve of the Earth”, due out early next year.
Telomere, which is named after a region at the end of each chromosome that protects from deterioration, sees Mystery Jets explore a larger and more complex rock sound, moving away from their signature quirky indie-rock tunes from the mid and late 2000’s.
The single is the first track lifted from their upcoming fifth studio album “Curve of the Earth”, their first album since 2012’s “Radlands”.
“Curve of the Earth” was recorded between the summer of 2013 and 2015 near London, with the band setting up their own recording space in a disused button factory with vocalist Blaine Harrison embarking on isolated sessions in a cabin on the Thames Estuary.
Producing the album themselves, Blaine Harrison, guitarist Will Rees, drummer Kapil Trivedi, and new bassist Jack Flanagan found themselves rediscovering the gang mentality that had bound the band together at the start, resulting in Mystery Jets producing their most personal and musically definitive album to date.
"For us we've been through quite a lot in the last couple of years and there have been certain realisations that come with playing in a band that has been together for over two decades, I think these songs have real feeling about them,” said Will Rees.
“Curve of the Earth” by Mystery Jets will be released Friday 15th January 2016.
