THE RISING - OLYMPUS / I WANT YOU (I NEED YOU) ON DETOUR RECORDS


The Rising are back with another double A-side single taken from their long awaited, soon to be released second album. 

Both songs were recorded at the world famous Rockfield Studios in Monmouth, Wales in October 2015 by Tim Lewis (Spiritualized).

The tracks see the band experiment with more modern sounds and recording techniques, edging towards a more psychedelic sound than their previous recordings.

The single will again be released on a limited edition 7" vinyl press of 250 copies and will also be available to download.

Revival band Sema 4 are back together and will be playing York with The Killermeters in December
