  • Description

    LATEST STUDIO ALBUM FROM UK BASED, MERCURY PRIZE NOMINATED EXPERIMANTAL ART ROCKERS SWEET BILLY PILGRIM NOW AT MID-PRICE.

    Kscope release label debut & fourth album 'Motorcade Amnesiacs' from the UK's unsung heroes of experimental art rock Sweet Billy Pilgrim.

    'Motorcade Amnesiacs' follows on from their critically acclaimed album 'Crown and Treaty', which was awarded a coveted five stars by Mojo and featured as Album Of The Week in The Sunday Times and its Mercury Music Prize-nominated predecessor 'Twice Born Men' released on David Sylvian's Samadhi Sound label.

    Not ones to respect musical boundaries, Sweet Billy Pilgrim have thrown every ounce of their belief and passion into the genre spanning excellence of 'Motorcade Amnesiacs', an album of adventurously inspired melodies, intertwining riffs and eclectic rhythms, heavenly harmonies and thought-provoking lyrics.

    The first radio single 'Just Above Midtown' saw the band fuse their pop sensibilities with swaggering rock groove.

    'Longstreth' showcases guitarist & songwriter Tim Elsenburg's dynamic song writing ability, mixing beautiful harmonies with pounding guitar riffs, the groove-led 'We Just Did What Happened And Nobody Came' lodges firmly in the memory long after it ends and 'Tyrekickers', revels in co-vocalist Jana Carpenters heart-worn tones.

    'Motorcade Amnesiacs' cements Sweet Billy Pilgrim as one of Britain's greatest cult bands. 'Motorcade Amnesiacs' will be released as a 2CD Media book with limited edition bonus disc with 3 brand new bonus tracks including a remix of Steven Wilson 'Insurgentes' with a 24 page colour booklet.
