The Orielles announce new album 'Disco Volador'

With their impressive debut album 'Silver Dollar Moment' topping many albums of the year lists last year, The Orielles have now returned to announce the details behind their next studio LP.

The new full-length 'Disco Volador' will include the previously unveiled track 'Bobbi's Second World', is being previewed by the new lead single 'Come Down On Jupiter', and is expected to be released on the 28th February via Heavenly Recordings.

Speaking about their latest cut, frontwoman Esmé Dee Hand-Halford said, "'Come Down On Jupiter' is as much a song as it is a narrative that soundtracks a space flight, right through from the ominous introductory sounds of the grand piano to the Lizzie Mercier Descloux -esque 'thrift shop cowboys' group chants towards the end, which diffuse the tension of the wig out preceding it."

Adding about the new album, "Its literal interpretation from Spanish means flying disc but everyone experiences things differently. 'Disco Volador' could be a frisbee, a UFO, an alien nightclub or how you feel when you fly; what happens to your body physically or that euphoric buzz from a great party. But it is an album of escape; if I went to space, I might not come back."
