The legendary Barry Adamson (The Bad Seeds, Magazine) is set to release his 10th studio album, I Will Set You Free, on February 14th via Central Control. Today, he’s sharing the second single from the album, “Turnaround,” which you can download as a free MP3 here.
Barry is also coming back to the US for two in-store performances in February, including Other Music in NYC, and Reckless in Chicago.
34 years after the first album he played on (the seminal Magazine’s post-punk classicReal Life), Barry has made an album that touches on the sonic stepping stones he’s used year by year to pave his way to the present. The memories and experience from performing and taking his work across the world with Magazine, the Bad Seeds, Iggy Pop, The Gun Club really come to life on the album.
Adamson has also written for David Lynch and Danny Boyle, and was nominated for the Mercury Prize in 1992. He returned to grace the stage with a reformed Magazine during their triumphant 2009 tour. All this has directly influenced I Will Set You Free, coloring it with a steady, sure-handed experience that emanates from the fingertip fire of rock numbers to emotive, yearning noir ballads and new wave inflicted power pop.
I Will Set You Free Due Out 2/14 via Central Control
