House Of Love have just confirmed that they will be releasing a new album, She Paints Words In Red, on April 1 2013 via Cherry Red.

It will be their sixth album, their first since 2005's Days Run Away, which was released after a 12-year hiatus.

Says singer and guitarist Guy Chadwick: “We recorded the songs for She Paints Words In Red in ten days in November 2012. It was great to be recording again, and everything went to plan and gelled from the onset. Terry and I have got back to our original working relationship, with a few healthy quarrels thrown in still! We had just played a festival in Krakow, where we had a brilliant gig, so everyone was vibed up and ready to go. 
Pat Collier, who worked with us on most of our early recordings, was at the controls.

Chadwick recently did us a Baker's Dozen, picking out The Only Ones, Björk and Black Sabbath among his top 13 albums - have a read here.
