This week, The Wedding Present have released their rather fine single ‘You Jane’ which is taken from their forthcoming eighth or ninth (depending which website you check) studio album Valentina.*

The video is here:

Valentina

The tracklisting for the album (released on March 19 in the UK) is as follows:

You’re Dead (stream here)
You Jane
Meet Cute
Back A Bit… Stop
Stop Thief!
The Girl From The DDR
Deer Caught In The Headlights
524 Fidelio
End Credits
Mystery Date

The lineup has changed a great deal over the years -though, seemingly, under far happier circumstances than The Cure or The Fall. The band’s line-up on this album is David Gedge [vocals, guitars & percussion], Graeme Ramsay [guitars, piano, harmonium], Pepe le Moko [bass & backing vocals] and Charles Layton [drums & percussion].

Not only that, but it is also twenty-one years since the band’s seminal third album Seamonsters.

So enjoy this, wish I could find the proper video…

*Obviously, whether you count Mini as a full album or not will factor in here, too…
