Big Pink Talk Debut Album

Band name their new release

Noise-rock merchants The Big Pink have named their debut album 'A Brief History Of Love'.

A two piece, The Big Pink boast a long history. It's members have previously worked with Alex Empire before founding a record label which has released seven inches by the likes of Klaxons and more.

The band came together after a debauched house party, and began mixing noise elements with a classic rock template. Naming themselves after a seminal album by The Band, The Big Pink quickly began earning acclaim.

With a thunderous live show the group soon became a talking point amongst music fans. Their early singles have already become collectors items as the hype around them grows. Moving to New York to complete their debut album, the band recently returned to play a stunning set at Glastonbury.

Titled 'A Brief History Of Love' the band's debut album is due to be released in September. Record in New York's historic Electric Ladyland studios, the material is a striking blend of the old and new.

In an interview with BBC 6Music Big Pink member Milo Cordell revealed that the album title was chosen as "every song is a love song to some degree, about every different aspect of love."

"The good, the bad, the boring, the exciting, the dreams, the nightmares, the whole thing and I guess that's what encompasses the whole album, and we have a song called 'A Brief History Of Love', so it's apt".

Produced by Rich Costey, the band were apparently bowled over to be recording in such a historic environment. "It’s been great doing it in New York, being in Electric Lady. We recorded it in the same room as Combat Rock by The Clash."

Robbie Furze added that the band have held back material from their live shows. "There’s a couple of slower ones that we don’t play live. We actually wrote a new song out in Electric Lady which came very quickly in that room. That one is brand new to us. We’ll rehearse that one up for the festivals we do in August."

The Big Pink are due to release their new album 'A Brief History Of Love' in September.
