CLINIC - FANTASY ISLAND VINYL (LTD. ED. CURACAO TRANSPARENT)

LIMITED EDITION CURACAO TRANSPARENT VINYL

Release Date: 22nd October 2021

"On their vibrant and eclectic ninth studio album, Clinic - the band who wore surgical masks before it was a matter of urgency - are taking you to ‘Fantasy Island’, where you will find yourself transported to tropical climes. In guitarist / keyboard player Jonathan Hartley’s words: “Clinic look to a brighter future, [Fantasy Island] it’s a very positive album, it’s more about what you can make happen rather than being defeatist.” Their last album, 2019’s ‘Wheeltappers and Shunters’, found the band satirising British culture and wallowing in sleazy Seventies nostalgia. ‘Fantasy Island’ was recorded in an old studio on Merseyside during the summer of 2019, with good vibrations seeping into the grooves. This time they are embracing “the idea of looking at the future and the different ways it can unfold,” with their most electronic and pop record to date. “It’s a more global, international and outward looking record,” says Hartley. “Clear blue horizons. The brave new world!”"
