Another Sky announce their second studio album, Beach Day
Another Sky have announced their second studio album, Beach Day, alongside the new single, "Aimee Caught A Moth", which doesn't actually feature on the forthcoming full-length release.
"Aimee Caught A Moth" follows on from recent singles, "Burn The Way", "A Feeling", and the double release, "Psychopath" and "Watching Basinski", which marked their return after a three year hiatus.
Speaking on the release, the band says: "We weren't sure exactly how to announce the record. It felt like it needed more than words. And we've already released plenty of songs from it. So we gift to you a B-side, "Aimee Caught A Moth". This was one of the songs that fell through the net but one we still love.
It's a very literal song written in the depths of lockdown, when my flatmate Aimee caught and released a moth from a cobweb. It felt incredibly significant and songworthy. Aimee is an incredible person and deserves a song.”
Discussing the forthcoming album, Beach Day, vocalist Catrin Vincent adds: "We thought we'd finished our second record back in 2019 when we released I Slept On The Floor. But time is a complicated beast. And in the depths of lockdown, a completely new vision arose, one that we all knew we needed to follow instead. That vision was Beach Day. It's a story about moving through personal winters and finding the light. It's about acknowledging your whole self; your shadow side, your anger, your sadness… and learning to love those parts of yourself in order to move through it. We hope you can hear the beginnings of transformation in it."
