\u2018Long Live The Court\u2019, the brand new album from CMPND is OUT TODAY across the WWW and beyond.<\/p>\n

Huge thanks to everyone who PRE-ORDERED the LP across vinyl, CD & cassette; these will be flying out of HF HQ ASAP.<\/p>\n

Having soaked up all of the plaudits for their debut LP \u2018Eagle Court\u2019 released on High Focus Records back in 2019, the trio are plotting a return with their most raucous offering yet; Long Live The Court<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Picking up exactly where they left off, Long Live The Court <\/b>pits a kaleidoscope of contrasting emotions and energies against one another across 18 brand new tracks. The highs and the lows, pleasure and pain, joy and sorrow, introspection, surrealism, insanity, debauchery, but most significantly, dreamlike instrumentals (dripping in swooning synths and fluxing drums) with unrelenting and electric lyricism.<\/p>\n

Arguably their greatest collective attribute is the ability to express their unique personalities, whilst simultaneously producing a coherent piece of art that stays true to CMPND\u2019s<\/b> unwritten pillars. This is in part down to Wundrop\u2019s<\/b> role as executive producer, but also the fact that collaboration brings out the very best in them; constantly raising the levels in late-night studio sessions or when performing live.<\/p>\n

The result is a truly unique listen created by a trio who find real freedom in documenting their devil may care approach to both life and love in the music they make.<\/p>\n
