Bristol’s Spectres announce UK tour – New album, Condition out March 10th on Sonic Cathedral

Spectres have announced a mammoth tour of the UK and Europe to support the release of their second album, Condition, which is out on March 10 on Sonic Cathedral. The dates begin with a special hometown show at Bristol’s Cube cinema, where the band will be performing Condition in full, as part of an intense AV show. They then visit Ramsgate, London and Cornwall, before forays to Spain, Italy, Germany and Denmark, then heading back to Scotland, the north, the midlands and ending up back in Bristol at the end of April.

Condition is the follow-up to their acclaimed 2015 debut, Dying, it was recorded by Dominic Mitchison in the band’s adopted home city of Bristol and mastered by Frank Arkwright (Mogwai, 65daysofstatic) at Abbey Road in London.

It’s louder and more abrasive than their debut, but also a real progression. It sounds huge and adds a genuinely innovative and confrontational edge, partly inspired by last year’s remix album, Dead, which saw everyone from Factory Floor to Richard Fearless instructed to “kill” the songs from Dying.
