Love & Death

Overview & Specifications

Liverpool’s indie powerhouse Circa Waves announce the second chapter of their brand new album Death & Love via
Lower Third/[PIAS].

Death & Love Pt.1 was both terrifying and liberating to write, and is the first instalment of urgent, 9-track hits of cathartic guitar-pop, serving as a powerful coping mechanism to help process frontman Kieran Shudall’s near-death experience.

Back in early 2023, Kieran received a call from doctors to say that the main artery in his heart was severely blocked. Two days later, he was lying on an operating table watching a wire being inserted into his heart to fix it. What followed was the cancelling of a lot of shows, working out a lot of medication, and most crucially, now having to navigate a new way of life.
