Scotland's incomparable and influential Arab Strap are back with their ninth studio album, Half-Told Tales, arriving almost exactly 30 years since the beloved duo’s first ever single, The First Big Weekend, was released.
The follow-up to 2024's acclaimed I'm totally fine with it 👍 don't give a fuck anymore 👍 , Half-Told Tales is rich with Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton’s trademark wit and dark humour, whilst creating moments from quiet brooding to a self-described “disco-metal incantation that might make you dance”.
Including the single, You You You, the album Half-Told Taleswas recorded with long-time collaborator, Paul Savage (Mogwai, Belle and Sebastian, Franz Ferdinand) .
