But I'm sure you've already heard...
Travis are pleased to announce the details of their new single ‘Re-Offender’,
a poignantly beautiful love song about being trapped in a brutal relationship.
This is the first single to be taken from their much-anticipated fourth album
and the band’s first release since 2001's landmark LP "The Invisible Band”.
“Re-Offender” has been produced by the band and Tchad Blake.
In the past, Travis have addressed the politics of relationships, love and
life itself, but now they direct their sights at both domestic and global
concerns. Travis do not claim to be the experts, but with all the significant
World events which have dominated everyone's minds since they last put pen to
paper for the Invisible Band, Travis believe they have the responsibility to
document injustice, it would be almost impossible to ignore it.
As a direct response to going on anti-war marches in London and Glasgow, Fran
recently contributed an acoustic version of the track "The Beautiful
Occupation" to the War Child album "Hope", released to raise awareness and
funds for the innocent victims of the war in Iraq.
Almost a year on from drummer Neil Primrose's horrific accident in France,
the band are once more back playing live. June saw the band play an intimate
show in Blackburn and the following night witness a triumphant return to
Scotland and Edinburgh's Usher Hall in aid of the famine relief charity
Concern. The band debuted four new songs at the show including Re-Offender
and Definition of Wrong.
Track listing for the single Re-Offender is:
CD1
1. Re-Offender (full length)
2. Definition of Wrong
3. Enemy
CD2
1. Re-Offender (full length)
2. The Sea
3. Don't Be Shy
7"
A1. Re-Offender (full length)
B1. Definition of Wrong
Finally, Fran was recently to be seen at Loftus Road, where he got fans of
his beloved Celtic to sing the chorus to a new song, "Peace The Fuck Out"
- Celtic were playing a pre-season friendly against Fulham FC.
It should not go un-noted that Dougie, Andy and Neil are Rangers fans,
yet in the spirit of brotherly love they accepted the Hoops fans onboard!
Full details of the band's album and live dates are expected to be
announced shortly.
