The Avalanches announce their fourth album ‘No Bad Memories’ alongside new single ‘Can’t Get Over Losing You’

The Avalanches have announced their return with a new album ‘No Bad Memories’ set for release on October 16th, inspired by the simultaneously magical and insidious ways that advertising and name-brand technology wraps itself around our memories, and an ambivalent ode to the nostalgic pull of commercial jingles, proprietary start-up sounds and long forgotten audio logos.

“It’s been interesting as adults to reflect on this often stunning period of marketing – the creativity, filmmaking, photography and music – but which was also – you know, selling a completely unobtainable dream. The way we value devices and products; the way we reflect and represent ‘a life lived’; the wonder of memory and deep power of nostalgia, especially in sound. Revisiting imagery and jingles from childhood and realising how profoundly they have stuck… Taking these sound sources from within the heart of this kinda corporate framework and flipping the fragments into our own kind of joyous pop music … eventually we arrived at this world of ‘No Bad Memories’. – The Avalanches

‘No Bad Memories’ is built on an extraordinary constellation of collaborators, in a similar vein to previous Avalanches LPs ‘Wildflower’ and ‘We Will Always Love You’. New single ‘Can’t Get Over Losing You’, the fourth taste of the album, showcases Louisiana self taught producer and artist Portraits of Tracy . The single combines driving, garage rock drums with The Avalanches signature nostalgic samples and euphoric melodies and vocals from Portraits of Tracy.
