PRE-ORDER THE NEW ALBUM THUMB WORLD
OUT FEBRUARY 21, 2020:
fire-records.lnk.to/PT_ThumbWorld
Like a lover's touch after loneliness, like sun after the rain, like the guy at Subway when he returns from heating your bread in the little oven thing – Pictish Trail is back at last and BY GOD HOW WE MISSED HIM. Johnny's epic new album Thumb World will be released in February next year. You can get a taste right now with a track called 'Slow Memories', the mind-boggling video for which – made by renowned Scottish designer Swatpaz (AKA Davey Ferguson) – is available to watch and share. It doesn't taste as good as a Meatball Marinara on Italian Herbs and Cheese™ admittedly, BUT THEN WHAT DOES?
“The song 'Slow Memories' is about attributing the desire to escape from normal life as surrendering to an ‘out-of-body’ experience, something outwith your conscious control,” Johnny told The Skinny, between mouthfuls of a delicious foot-long. “Then choosing to remember the course of events in a different way, because you can’t face the truth. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE.
“Look, I don’t believe in aliens,” he continued, spitting sandwich-y pulp as he worked himself up into a frenzy, “but I find the idea of alien abductions quite amusing, and a fitting metaphor for the theme of this song. ‘Where were you last night?’ / ‘Umm, I was abducted by aliens?’ It’s quite a sad song, though, really. It was produced by Rob Jones down at his studio in Kinver, and features Kim Moore (WOLF) on viola."
In other news: massive long tour.

FELL FOR OCTOBER POSTMAP CLUB
If you're not familiar with either the band Fell or indeed the entire concept of Lost Map's PostMap Club then a) seriously do you never read these emails? and b) stick the kettle, crack open a fresh pack of Choco Leibniz, sit yourself down and let us explain everything. Fell, for starters, are a band. But not just any band, rather the only band. Called Fell. Which is to say, the musical alias of sock-fearing London-based artist, illustrator and creator of sun-kissed psychedelic pop dreaminess Nicolas Burrows, aided and abetted by band members Jon Rulton (Bear Driver, Dream Giant), Dav Shiel (Beth Jeans-Houghton & The Hooves of Destiny) and Matt Giraudeau (Dogtanion).
Set for release as a limited-edition cassette tape and via digital services from next Friday, October 11, his/their Lost Map debut EP For The Pickling is supremely good ( pre-oder now). So good that to accompany/augment it we're also releasing a PostMap postcard single of the opening track 'Dream Song', together with some spicy exclusive bonus material which you won't get anywhere else. Just sign up and it's all yours, baby. Were that all not enough then entirely for free we'll also throw in a list of our top five things in the world featuring the word "fell", which might look a little something like this:
1. Fell (band)
2. The Fall of Rome (when referred to in past participle)
3. Campsie Fells (hills)
4. "Fuck I fell in a bush" (popular expression)
5. Vanessa Fell-tz (no introduction required)
Right good. Now we've cleared all that up, a reminder of the full benefits of being in the PostMap Club, which in October will also include receiving a copy of the aforementioned Pictish Trail's 'Slow Memories' single (sticker postcard with exclusive remixes!):
REGULAR BREW
(£3 + postage, per month)
WHAT YOU GET:

- Discounts! On other Lost Map releases, merchandise and gigs
