Release Notes:
When their debut LP, 'A Strange Education' hit stores in 2007 via TVT
records, Glasgow's The Cinematics were poised for superstardom. Having
already received accolades from everyone from Spin to Teen Vogue to The
New York Times and toured with the likes of interpol, The Bravery and
We Are Scientists, it seemed that the new wave inspired foursome's next
big break was just around the corner. Until the unthinkable happened in
early 2008--powerhouse independent label TVT records filed for
bankruptcy.
A lot has happened since then and that first single. Original guitarist
Ramsay Miller was replaced by Larry Reid, The Cinematics recorded a new
album on their own and The Orchard purchased TVT, making it possible
for the band's sophomore masterpiece, 'Love and Terror', to finally see
the light of day. The album, dark and brooding, yet full of sharp hooks
and vocal melodies that would make Ian McCulloch proud, is about young
lovers struggling to make their way in a world in meltdown. Singer
Scott Rinning describes 'Love and Terror' as a truly honest record of
our times.
The old record label business model would not fit with the sound and
feel of the band or our music, asserts bass-player, Adam Goemans, every
production quirk on this album has been created by the band. There was
no record company pressure on us to compromise. And compromise they
didn't, creating a haunting and powerful record that proves that The
Cinematics are back in full force, and they are here to stay.
