Erasure are back with a new single called ‘Elevation’ and will release their new album ‘The Violet Flame’ in September.
“It’s all about hope, forgiveness, being given a new chance and the world being your oyster” – Andy Bell.
As the duo approach 30 years of songwriting having sold over 25 million albums worldwide, the globally-adored duo of Andy Bell and Vince Clarke have created another emotionally-charged electro-pop hit with synth-fuelled melodies.
The new album is the band’s nineteenth release, their most recent album was the Christmas collection, ‘Snow Globe’, while their last album of new material was 2011’s ‘Tomorrow’s World’.
The new record is produced in collaboration with Richard X and will have ten tracks. The track listing is ‘Dead of Night’, ‘Elevation’, ‘Reason’, ‘Promises’, ‘Be the One’, ‘Sacred’, ‘Under the Wave’, ‘Smoke and Mirrors’, ‘Paradise’ and ‘Stay a Little Late’.
