Description
The Unwinding Hours follow up their 2010 self-titled debut with the much anticipated album Afterlives.
Craig B and Iain Cook were formerly one half of the critically acclaimed band Aereogramme, who split up in 2007.
Afterlives was written, performed and produced by The Unwinding Hours at Alucard Studios in Glasgow.
Afterlives features The Unwinding Hours emotive brand of uplifting rock, influenced by the likes of Flaming Lips, Max Richter, The Cocteau Twins and even Laurie Anderson.
Craig Bs lyrics and heart-rending vocals bring to mind the melancholic grandeur of Mark Eitzels American Music Club with the propulsive dynamic recalling Bob Moulds Sugar.
The album artwork was taken from an etching by an American artist called Jack Baumgartner. The artwork depicts the biblical story of Jacob wrestling with the Angel.
The vinyl LP (which includes a CD of the album) is limited to 1000 copies worldwide and also includes a 12×12 printed lyric sheet.
