This Train Remains by abadgeoffriendship

<b>The Last September</b> unveil their latest single, <b><i>This Train Remains</b></i>. The single is taken from their forthcoming album, <b><i>Volcano</b></i> released <b>20th October 2014</b> via <b>Fountainhall Records</b>.

<i>This Train Remains</i> opens with a drum flourish from <b>Simon Usher</b> that lives up to the single’s name, before <b>Pete Deane</b>’s haunting vocals take the listener on a journey of ecstatic highs and introspective lows. <b>Archie MacFarlane</b> provides a haunting accordion backdrop to the track, while <b>David Bishop</b>’s bass line provides the spine of the melody, and the meandering guitar from <b>Craig Nicholson</b> counterpoints with the drums, completing the illusion of locomotion.

Earning his stripes playing in Edinburgh-based indie hopefuls <b>Suburbia</b> (which gave him the opportunity to work with renowned producer <b>Tony Visconti</b>), Pete boldly struck out on his own musical path 2004. Along the way he collected a number of like-minded eccentrics over and, the line-up was complete once Simon ʻthe Mad Dukeʼ Usher sat down behind the band’s drum kit in 2013.

With an album due in October, The Last September will be embarking on a Scottish tour this September after putting in appearances at festivals such as <b>Kelburn Garden Party</b> and <b>Fringe By The Sea</b>.

<i><b>This Train Remains</b></i> is released via <b>Fountainhall Records</b>.
