In the summer of 2022, we were dubbing this sunnier version of our sophomore record, \u003cem\u003eBehind Your Blue Fields\u003c\/em\u003e. … Even though these demos\/songs got the boot, it’s great to share them with you now as a glimpse into a “what could have been” second album that never fully came to fruition.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 13 demos (and some nifty hidden bonus tracks) here present a fascinating alternate direction for the group and a distinctly different vision for their second album, and as such are a most welcome addition to the Laughing Chimes catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Slumberland Records","offers":[{"title":"Cassette","offer_id":51138523758870,"sku":"RMX-65348","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/fcc8c69d1ad773c6f82f29c6330431a6.jpg?v=1774623949","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/laughing-chimes-the-behind-your-blue-fields","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
