Indie exclusive white vinyl edition.
‘The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows’, the new studio album from former Blur frontman Damon Albarn, is released by new label home Transgressive Records.
‘The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows’ was originally intended as an orchestral piece inspired by the landscapes of Iceland. This last year has seen Albarn return to the music in lockdown and develop the work to 11 tracks which further explore themes of fragility, loss, emergence and rebirth. The result is a panoramic collection of songs with Albarn as storyteller. The album title is taken from a John Clare poem Love and Memory.
A recent special Globe Theatre performance in London sold out immediately and was streamed globally to 72 countries around the world and received rave reviews across the board.
