Los Campesinos! are back with their fourth full length LP titled Hello Sadness which will drop on November 14th, 2011. Check out the tracklisting and what the band has to say about the record as well as pre-order goodies below.
Conceived in Girona, Spain earlier this year, under the watchful eye of producer John Goodmanson, Hello Sadness is ten songs of love, loss and heartbreak nail-gunned to a back-drop of broken, tangled bodies, creeping, dead-eyed animals, suffocating, looming shadows and World Cup exits. It is an honest, bare bones documentation of breaking up and trying not to break up in the process.
