Calling it their most personal and honest record yet, 'Strangeland' is the fourth studio album from 4 x British chart toppers Keane.
'Strangeland' is the fourth studio album from 4 x British chart toppers, Keane. Keane recorded 'Strangeland' with producer Dan Grech (Radiohead, The Vaccines, Howling Bells, Lana del Rey) in the UK at Sea Fog, Ivor Novello Award winner Tim Rice-Oxley's studio. They are calling it their most personal and honest record yet. The British multi-million selling band are now a four piece with the addition of new member bass player Jesse Quin who collaborated with Rice-Oxley on Mt. Desolation.
There are certain songs on 'Strangeland' which, at a stroke, are unmistakably, quintessentially Keane, a real once-heard, never-forgotten moment. The album exemplifies Keane's ability to alchemise complicated emotions into songs of deceptive simplicity, that fantastic unidentifiable thing that distinguishes a good song from a great one.
Tim Rice-Oxley recently said of the album: "'Strangeland' feels like an adventure that brings with it different things for different people, and like any adventure is full of uncertainty, and the potential for mishap, as well as the possibility of amazing things and glorious discoveries. I love the idea of the journey through 'Strangeland' being a journey of redemption."
