This is the first new music that the band has released since their 2021 album entitled Flying Dream 1. The British rock band, creates cinematic tunes that mirror that of an orchestra then a rock band.

The single that the group has released today is entitled 'Lovers' Leap'. Lead singer, Guy Garvey describes it as, "not to reflect but distract from the bad things happening in the world. We found seedy, gnarly grooves playing in back rooms and those pulled some dark memories and plenty of humor from me."

The single starts with bassist Turner and drummer Reeves working together to create a jaunty tune that contradicts the dark melody and lyrics that follow.

The album was recorded in many studios in 2023. They started at Migration Studios in Gloucestershire and then ended at Blueprint studios in Salford to finalize the album. With a wide range of genres and beats mixed into this album, the music is infections.

Audio Vertigo will consist of 12 tracks: 'Things I've Been Telling Myself For Years', 'Lovers' Leap', '(Where Is It?)', 'Balu', 'Very Heaven', 'Her To The Earth', 'The Picture', 'Poker Face', 'Knife Fight', 'Embers Of Day', 'Good Blood Mexico City' and 'From The River'.
