ILT: This Skin Full of Bones CD/DVD

This Skin Full of Bones

Our European tour is nearly upon us, and in between rehearsals and writing sessions for the next record we have been secretly beavering away to bring you a new release.

Entitled This Skin Full of Bones, the release will mark the end of our He Who Saw the Deep album campaign.

It includes a DVD with videos of us performing acoustic versions of ‘A Father’s Son’, ‘Sirens’, ‘Progress is a Snake’ and ‘Hope is Not Enough’ at the Left Bank in Leeds.

It also includes a trilogy of music videos produced by The Progress Film Company for ‘He Who Saw the Deep’; ‘A Father’s Son’, ‘Sirens’ and a brand new video for ‘Sea of Regrets.

An audio CD will include the audio from the Left Bank session and the b-sides from the HWSTD singles.

Pre-order here or if you can’t wait that long pick a copy up on our forthcoming tour.

Tour Exclusives

For the tour we will be also be offering some tour exclusives. They includes a free download of a song entitled ‘We Were Matadors’. It lives alone without an album to call home, and we hope that you will take it in and let it live on your hard drives. There is also an awesome remix of Sirens by Maybeshewill that has yet to see the light of day.

To get these goodies there will be a QR code at our merchandise desk…In order to get the link to download the songs you will need to scan the code with your smart phone. Technology will do the rest.

A quick reminder of our European tour dates for October. Tickets are available from Crowdsurge.

The Deep

Returning cult heroes I Like Trains are set to air new tracks from their forthcoming album ‘He Who Saw The Deep’ on October 14th at a venue which uniquely reflects the records themes and title, namely Hull’s The Deep – http://www.thedeep.co.uk/ the world’s only submarium.

This majestic underwater world will play host to the band airing ‘He Who Saw The Deep’, scheduled for an autumn release, for the very first time. In keeping with the bands constant fan oriented ethos, I Like Trains will be releasing the 100 exclusive tickets for this show via the Pledge music site – http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/iliketrains

Having utilised Pledge to fund their impending second full length album (and reached their initial monetary target in a staggering 24 hours) the band are keen to maintain their strong connection with their fan base by offering the chance to be at an intimate gig in one of the most characterful and unique buildings in Britain.
