Product DescriptionAustin-based fantasy quintet The Black and White Years are pleased to announce their latest full-length. Available on January 21, 2014 via Modern Outsider, Strange Figurines, features a collection of ten tracks completing their most compelling work to date.
Since 2006 when Scott Butler, Landon Thompson and John Aldridge formed The Black & White Years their sifter has been shaking beyond the status quo. They ve released two albums and one EP. Topped radio charts. Shifted directions. Nearly broken up. Added members. Won awards. And now, seven years post, what s left at the bottom of the sieve are the
undeniably solid pieces of a band arriving at a capstone.
Strange Figurines is that stone. It is the unalloyed chunk that endured best and worst times, youthful decisions, egos, changes, collaborations and maturity, to become an album embodying not just style or substance. But a perfectly mixed cocktail of them both.
