Inspiral Carpets
will drop their forthcoming sixth studio album 'burn like the sun'
on january 29, 2027 through scruff of the neck records.
following 'drag the bag' and 'there's a better way',
the third pre-single release 'touching from a distance too far'
is arguably the strongest of the three so far.
that familiar carpets sound is all there - swirling organs, psychedelic grooves
and a melody that stays with you!
behind the track is legendary producer Jagz Kooner, whose work includes
Sabres Of Paradise, Andrew Weatherall, Primal Scream and The Aloof.
check out the music video for the tune ...
