Scotland’s incomparable and influential Arab Strap are back with their ninth studio album “Half-Told Tales“: almost exactly 30 years since the beloved duo’s debut single “The First Big Weekend” was released. “Half-Told Tales” is rich with Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton’s trademark wit and dark humour, whilst creating moments from quiet brooding to a self-described “disco-metal incantation that might make you dance.” The album was recorded with long-time collaborator Paul Savage (Mogwai, Belle and Sebastian, Franz Ferdinand). As they say: “We’re 30 years old this year, so we decided to celebrate by doing what we enjoy most: by making new music.”
