The Murder Capital announce new album 'Blindness'

Following their recent comeback single 'Can't Pretend To Know' earlier this year, The Murder Capital have now announced their plans for a new studio album, arriving early next year.

The new full-length 'Blindness' follows last year's highly-praised LP 'Gigi's Recovery', is being previewed by the lead track 'Words Lost Meaning', and is set to be released on the 21st February.

Speaking about the new record, the band's James McGovern said, “There’s what’s in front of us, in our immediate field of vision. There are the things we can touch, the love we can feel. Then there’s everything else. Blindness is the warped belief. The behind us. The secluded. Love at a distance. Faith in denial. Distorted patriotism. The fading face of moments in the rear view. Blindness brings it all into focus."

Moonshot
Words Lost Meaning
Can’t Pretend To Know
