Arab Strap are among Scotland's most acclaimed bands of the 1990s and 2000s. Their new album 'Half-Told Tales', the group’s ninth, will arrive almost three decades to the day since their first single was released. “We’re thirty years old this year,” says the duo, “So we decided to celebrate by doing what we enjoy most: by making new music.” The band have never sounded more relevant on the state-of-affairs lead single ‘You You You’, a track that bubbles to life sounding like some long-lost killer Italo disco record – with Moffat’s vocal refrain of the song’s title creating one of the most outright melodically infectious songs the band have ever made – and that's before Malcolm Middleton’s punchy and spiralling guitar lines burst through it. The result is something that feels like an entirely new genre. “A sort of disco-metal incantation,” suggests Moffat. “With a message of future felicity and fellowship that – fingers crossed – might make you dance and giggle too.”  With new music out now, and more on the way, they are back to headline Heaven in London this Autumn.
