There are quite a few releases this year that i’m really excited for (Sleigh Bells, Islands, The xx…to name a few), but none more so than the debut LP from the UK “chop pop” maestros — Clock Opera.
It was Clock Opera’s superb remixes that originally caught my attention, but for the last couple of years, the group has been teasing us fans with original works and the promise of a full length release. But now this promise has become a reality, and the reality is Ways To Forget.
To celebrate the release, the group has put together videos of how the album came together. Part 1 (of 4) is below and you view the rest on Clock Opera’s youtube channel.
Ways To Forget will be released on April 9th via Moshi Moshi/Island Records. If you’re in the UK, you can preorder it here. International release plans coming soon. The album release will be followed by Clock Opera’s first UK headlining tour and they’ll be in NY and SXSW this March.
