Until The Next Show

from Shards by In Isolation

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    The 'Shards' CD album is released on 10th October 2020.

    The long-awaited second album, released on jewel-cased compact disc.

    Includes live favourites 'The Man Who Hides From Love' and 'Russian Doll', as well as former singles 'TRAPPIST-1' and our interpretation of the classic Bauhaus track 'She's In Parties'.

    Track listing:

    The Man Who Hides From Love
    Russian Doll
    Infinite
    Loving The Ghost (from forthcoming 'Seepers' movie soundtrack)
    Estrangement
    She's In Parties (Bauhaus cover)
    TRAPPIST-1 [A Space Anthem]
    Until The Next Show

    + bonus Easter egg track.


    ‘Shards’ is an album of complex arrangements, but with a pop sensibility at its heart, much like the bands of the 80s from which it draws influence and comparison.

    Guitars and synths play a large part. Think Simple Minds, The Cure, The Human League, Siouxsie And The Banshees, coupled with later Post-punk revivalists Editors and Interpol.

    Like its predecessor, much of the album's lyrical themes pertain to matters of the heart; it is essentially one big love-fest, but with a dark, often cinematic vibe. Despite romantic forays, also explored are forced imprisonment in an apocalyptical landscape ('Loving The Ghost') diplomatic poisoning ('Russian Doll') and even contemporary astrophysics ('TRAPPIST-1'). There also features In Isolation’s former single, an interpretation of the classic Bauhaus anthem 'She's In Parties’ (the accompanying YouTube video to this track with its 1920s mood is currently the most popular on the band’s music video channel - youtu.be/9uCAUEb9P4Y).

    Frontman Ryan Swift says of the band's long-awaited follow-up, ‘“Shards” took us a while to complete since our debut four years back, but now it's here, it's one we're proud of. The songwriting, we feel, is more confident and the lyrics are deliberately less ambiguous and more relatable. I found love in my life and so I brought love to the fore in these lyrical presentations.

    ‘We can't wait until we can bring these out to you again in a live capacity. We're talking to festivals and we have a promoter negotiating a number of European dates on our behalf. We hope you can find something in our music to help you through these tricky times. We'll see you out there soon!'

lyrics

It’s a matter of how you perform, we open Friday night
The thundering hooves drown out the carefully-mused
What a strange animation to draw; I had to time it right
And now a vision of you flips my mind

I’m wise to the people leeching colour from your eyes
I’ll write you a sequel you’ll care about in time
The cries of hyena, as they worry lambs at night, won’t flow
Until the next show

Insomuch as I’ve been here before, my focus stays in tight
Pulling shards from my hand, I’m a lucky man
Two heads are better than one as our darkened words shed light
Come and play with my friends; they won’t bite

I’m wise to the people leeching colour from your eyes
I’ll write you a sequel you’ll care about in time
The cries of hyena, as they worry lambs at night, won’t flow
Until the next show

High time we broke the mould
To my mind, you’re a physical soul
And everyone wants everyone

Time behaves when we least need a pause; the end is almost nigh
Teasing scraps from the bone, we hate to be alone
Sharp lines have an angular cause and I cut them with your knife
Should we bleed for a week or for life?

I’m wise to the people leeching colour from your eyes
I’ll write you a sequel you’ll care about in time
The cries of hyena, as they worry lambs at night, won’t flow
Until the next show
