ANNOUNCE NEW STUDIO ALBUM ‘LIGHT AT THE END OF THE WORLD’
DUE OUT MAY 22 VIA MUTE
NEW SINGLE “I COULD FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU” SET FOR SPRING RELEASE
ERASURE—the iconic British pop duo of Andy Bell and Vince Clarke who’ve sold more than 20 million albums worldwide—have announced they are set to release their new single “I Could Fall in Love With You” through Mute this spring. The song is taken from their new album LIGHT AT THE END OF THE WORLD due out May 22. Coming after 2006’s Union Street—an acoustic album of drastically rearranged lesser-known ERASURE songs that was recorded with a full band and underlined the enduring quality of the material–LIGHT AT THE END OF THE WORLD is a potent return to classic, totally electronic ERASURE form as last heard on 2005’s Nightbird (Mute).
Light At The End Of The World was written and recorded at a private home in the U.S. in Maine which Clarke and Bell–alongside producer Gareth Jones (Depeche Mode, Nick Cave)–converted into a recording studio. It was here over a month’s time during the fall of 2006, they wrote and recorded ten new songs.
Light At The End Of The World confirms ERASURE’s status as one of the U.K.’s most successful songwriting duos of all time. With over 32 top forty consecutive hits to date, this new collection of songs will surely continue Erasure’s already outstanding legacy.
