Spiritualized Announce New Album

Sweet Heart Sweet Light for release in March

Jason Pierce (aka J. Spaceman)’s Spiritualized have announced the release of their seventh album, Sweet Heart Sweet Light, on March 19th through Double Six.

Sweet Heart Sweet Light was recorded over the last two years in Iceland, LA and Wales, and mixed at home by Pierce over the last year.

"This time around, I wanted to do something that encompassed all I love in rock ‘n’ roll music," said Pierce. "It’s got everything from Brotzmann and Berry right through to Dennis and Brian Wilson. I’m obsessed with music and the way you put it together and I don’t believe there are any rules."

The full tracklist for the album runs as follows:

‘Hey Jane’

‘Little Girl’

‘Get What You Want’

‘Too Late’

‘Heading For The Top’

‘Freedom’

‘I Am What I Am’

‘Mary’

‘Life Is A Problem’

‘So Long You Pretty Things’
