TUNE The Ninth Wave - Sometimes The Silence Is Sweeter

The Ninth Wave release "Sometimes The Silence Is Sweeter", the second single to be lifted from their forthcoming physical-only EP ‘FLESCH’, released 9th November on Distiller Records.

Described by frontman Haydn Park-Patterson as “an appreciation of being alone,” "Sometimes The Silence Is Sweeter" is the latest foray into The Ninth Wave’s unique, introspective world, seamlessly meshing dark, post-punk undertones with huge, cinematic pop hooks. Produced by Dan Austin (Massive Attack, Sløtface), the new EP is, in Haydn’s words, “a mix of everything we’ve done in the last year and everything that’s still to come,” preceding the band’s hotly anticipated debut album, due for release in 2019.

Since releasing their debut EP last year, the Glaswegian four-piece have been lauded by The Guardian, NME and i-D and played shows alongside the likes of Editors, Blaenavon and The Magic Gang. Their striking visuals have even caught the attention of Hedi Slimane, who shot Haydn for a portrait series earlier this year, and Charles Jeffrey, who collaborated with the band for his critically acclaimed Loverboy exhibition.

‘FLESCH’ will be released on Distiller Records on November 9th.
