Legendary Bellshill band announce brand new album coming this year alongside UK tour

A legendary Bellshill band that inspired Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain have announced a new album release coming this Autumn.

Teenage Fanclub made the announcement today that their brand-new album,‘Nothing Lasts Forever’‘, will come out September 22 via their own label ‘PeMa’ in the UK and Europe while the record-label Merge will release the album in the US.

Alongside the announcement, the band shared the lead track music video for the album opener ‘Foreign Land’ shot by a longtime collaborator of the band, Donald Milne. You can watch the new music video HERE.

Back in 1992, Teenage Fanclub supported Nirvana on the European leg of the ‘Nevermind’ album world tour - the bands enjoyed a close relationship with each other, so much so that Kurt Coban would call Teenage Fanclub ‘the best band in the world.’

To promote the new album Teenage Fanclub will embark on an extensive UK tour, covering major cities across Britain.

Speaking about their latest music video ‘Foreign Land’, vocalist and guitarist Norman Blake said:”The song is about moving forward, not dwelling on the past.

“We shot the video in Hamilton Mausoleum, near Glasgow. Given that the album is called Nothing Lasts Forever we thought it would be appropriate to shoot a video inside a tomb”.

The album’s message is simple. Don’t look back, only forward. It’s meant to represent the end of an era, and that’s exhibited in the sound of the tracks themselves - reflective vocals and melancholy melody’s.
