reissue

after an 8 year hiatus, tanlines are back with their 3rd album.

after a rollercoaster twenty-five year career as an artist, curator and tastemaker, james lavelle returns with unkle’s fifth studio album: the road part 1.
the road part 1 is a collection of fifteen new unkle tracks inspired following his curation of 2014’s meltdown festival at southbank, their most successful to date.
the road part 1 is a collective creative venture by musicians including london folk-rock artist and poet keaton henson, primal scream’s andrew innes, the duke spirit’s liela moss, long time unkle collaborator mark lanegan, and mercury prize nominee eska.
lavelle also found new friends and collaborators in queens of the stone age drummer jon theodore and beck drummer justin stanley, who make definitive contributions throughout the record.
recorded in london and los angeles’ pink duck studios, the road part 1 is the product of a desire to create something fresh and innovative, that also celebrates the rich history of unkle, and showcases a new wave of talent such as elliott power, mïnk and yseÉ.
double 180 gram black vinyl, housed in a gatefold sleeve.
