Egyptian Blue announce debut album 'A Living Commodity'

After cementing themselves with a wealth of riveting releases these last few years, Egyptian Blue have now announced their plans for their long-awaited debut album, arriving later this year.

The new full-length 'A Living Commodity' is being previewed by the new lead single 'Skin', which comes accompanied by a stunning live video, and is set to be released on the 27th October via Yala! Records.

Speaking about the new offering, they said, "'Skin' was a demo I wrote on my balcony on a hot summer’s day. I became completely infatuated by the shakers, insisting that this is a shaker song and the rest is just background noise. It’s a simple song and kind of structurally unorthodox. But again as many EB songs have the tendency to complicate simple ideas, 'Skin' certainly wasn’t an exception. I see wide open spaces snapping into a tight and clean portrait and back and forth between them. It toys with the idea of being ok then not ok and pining to wear another’s 'Skin' in the climate of discontent in yourself and your situations."
