{"product_id":"sister-ray-davies-holy-island","title":"Sister Ray Davies- Holy Island (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSister Ray Davies release their debut album Holy Island on November 14. The brilliantly named duo - formed by Adam Morrow and Jamie Sego - might be based in \"the hit recording capital of the world\", Muscle Shoals, Alabama, but somehow, they have made a concept album about the ancient religious outpost off the coast of northeast England.\r\n\r\nIt's a stunning record that mixes fuzzy guitars with folk horror and fantastic melodies - for fans of Ride, Slowdive, Galaxie 500, Talk Talk, Yo La Tengo and The Clientele. Despite it's lyrical inspiration lying thousands of miles away, it comes imbued with the soulfulness of their surroundings - not least because it was recorded in the old Muscle Shoals Sound studio by the Tennessee River, now Portside Sound, which is run by Jamie.\r\n\r\n\"The story of Lindisfarne gave us a framework for what were otherwise very abstract ideas and emotions,\" explains Adam. \"It became a way to make sense of our own moment in history. We really want our lives and societies to always get better, and to be left alone to make that happen. But we are stuck in these cycles of progress and regression, and I think most people are really driven to make sense of it and assign meaning. Lately, we've lived through a global pandemic, a devaluation of truth and reality, and a resurgence of far-right politics into the mainstream. Not really what I expected out of life in 2025.\"\r\n\r\nHe is keen to point out that, despite the seriousness of it's inspirations, the duo had a lot of fun making the album and really want it to be \"a living and breathing thing\". \"We want people to be able to engage with it regardless of whether they care about it as a concept record,\" he says. \"For me, it's just another reason to expand the pedalboard,\" concludes Jamie. \"We hope you enjoy it. Peace, love and reverb 5 060853 705762 from Alabama.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLindisfarne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Iona\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Aidan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Big Ships\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Holy Island\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rowans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Nave\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cloisters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Morning Bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e UPC \u0026gt; 5060853705793 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Format \u0026gt; New CD \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Label \u0026gt; Well Kept Secret \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Release Date \u0026gt; Release Date: 11.14.25 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798775222493,"sku":"5060853705793","price":82.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4458271-3449387.jpg?v=1758307352","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/products\/sister-ray-davies-holy-island","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
