So Long Forever

PALACE will release their dark, enchanting debut album ‘So Long Forever’ on Fiction Records on 4th November 2016. It is the kind of record you don’t want to become a premonition. Frontman Leo Wyndham had written it about the recent separation of his parents and the death of a family member; songs of destructive relationships, painful splits and bitter regrets. Then, album recorded but the blows still fresh, he suffered a break-up himself and the album took on an even darker relevance. “Two or three of the songs were almost predictions,” Leo says ruefully. “’So Long Forever’ and ‘Live Well’ are about things that had never happened to me in a relationship but have all kind of come true.” Clearly an album of dark magic, ‘So Long Forever’ is your cordial invite to Palace, this generation’s most moving evolution in alt-rock. They sing of heartbreak, family ructions, death and diving headfirst into relationships they know will destroy them. They make sumptuous, soulful rock music in a dour ex-munitions factory. They’re the fatalistic sound of the future.
