TILLY AND THE WALL
NEW ALBUM ‘O' RELEASED 6TH OCTOBER ON MOSHI MOSHI
 
More vivid and emboldened then ever before, Tilly And The Wall unleash their new album ‘O' on 6th October on Moshi Moshi.
 
Long loved by the hip and the cognoscenti, the Omaha five piece have delivered on their alt-pop promise with an album as compelling, explosive and potentially chart-bothering as a three-way between Lovefoxxx, Gwen Stefani and Black Lips.
 
The dizzyingly unique ‘Tilly' arrangements of hip-shaking tap, overdriven guitar and close-knit girl-boy vocals underpin twelve tracks of increasingly bold pop eclecticism.  Kianna, Derek, Jamie, Nick, and Neely strop-stomp their way through the dirty riot-blues of Pot Kettle Black, cast spiralling brass across Cacophony and I Found You, gate-crash a new wave disco with Falling Without Knowing, and bask in the vibrant electro-pop technicolour of lead single Beat Control.
 
Produced by Mike Mogis (Lightspeed Champion), ‘O' is their most collaborative effort yet. Drawing on four years of touring with the likes of Lightspeed Champion, Bright Eyes and most recently CSS; the songwriting hat of every member is thrust into the ring. The result is a cohesive yet wildly experimental record; Flowers-in-hair and psych-harmony breeze by on Blood Flowers and Chandelier Lake, the percussive delights of pots, pans and a tap-trio combine on Alligator Skin, and the album is littered with a veritable merry-go-round of cussing and swearing, reaching its zenith with Too Excited. 
 
Just four years ago Tilly And The Wall emerged from Omaha with debut album Wild Like Children, revealing their unbridled and potent combination of singsong harmonies, charging acoustic guitars and of course the synonymous tap dancing ‘drummer'. These ‘growing up songs' about not wanting to grow up, losing your love to the road, and the urge to force the night as far as you could take it, evolved into the universal themes of the sophomore album Bottoms of Barrels. Just as the band matured into the bigger themes of freedom, courage and rebellion on that second album, now they have realised tougher, sharper, stronger charges of beat and song on their third.
 
Strictly speaking an untitled album, O's artwork comes as a foldout booklet featuring seven different designs by various artist friends of the band.  Fans can re-fold the booklet so they have their favourite image at the front.
