Faded Seaside Glamour (LP)

Delays' Faded Seaside Glamour on vinyl for the first time ever.

A space of wonderment and exhilaration, the home of true heart and a timeless soul, Delays' Faded Seaside Glamour was an atmospheric and evocative debut album. Released in 2004, the fragile strength of frontman Greg Gilbert's vocals intoxicatedly intertwined with the forward looking synths of his brother Aaron, Colin Fox's bass and Rowly's drumming, to create a series of affecting songs that delivered an immediate pop hit that also left a deep and wistful impact worthy of the album's enticing title.

Its iconic singles "Nearer Than Heaven" and "Long Time Coming", became immediate yet lasting focal points for Southampton's Delays, while tracks including the melancholic "No Ending", the smooth beats of "Stay Where You Are" and chiming opener "Wanderlust" demonstrated the remarkable depth of this unique debut.
