On October 11th, Field Music will release Limits of Language, their first album of new music for almost four years. Following a period where brothers David and Peter Brewis took some time to focus on solo projects (2023 saw the release of David's Soft Struggles and Peter's Blowdry Colossus) this album see's them combine new instrumental pallettes discovered during their solo works with classic Field Music songwriting. Whilst Peter amassed the instrumental compositions which become Blowdry Colossus, he was also tinkering with a batch of songs which would form the basis of Limits of Language, songs which mixed synthesised textures with off-the-cuff flickers of guitar and layers of disorientating found-sound percussion. These fleshed-out demos included The Waitress of St Louis’, an ode to the now-closed Sunderland café ’Louis’, which featured on the cover of their 2007 album Tones of Town, and to the Maggiore family who ran this cherished institution. David’s songs came from a different angle but leant into the same sonic palette and shared the same sense of a past becoming granulated. Album opener, Six Weeks, Nine Wells pits the hazy ecstasies of school summer holidays against the fear and foreboding of a child peeking through into an adult world. Limits of Language sees Field Music continue with their astonishing, bloody-minded run of releases. A run which equates to an impressive twenty-one "Field Music Productions" in nineteen years as a band.
