“We wrote the record in Glasgow in the winter when it was gray and raining all the time,” he explains. The shift in scenery ending up changing the new material a bit, according to Baird.
The band wrote their new tunes in Glasgow before heading out to L.A. “We were so much more focused and so much more excited to be in there and doing it.” “We recorded our first album in London, and this time we just got to drive up PCH and drive by the sea, and it was lovely,” bassist Kevin Baird tells Rolling Stone. Kevin Baird and Sam Halliday, either side of him, also add to the initiative, thrashing their guitars with a synchronised thrust of shoulders and heads.If Two Door Cinema Club’s second album, Beacon, due out on September 4th, feels warmer and more upbeat than fans might expect from the Irish band, it’s all because of Los Angeles, where they recorded the new LP with producer Jacknife Lee (R.E.M., Silversun Pickups). Trimble is not the most imposing of leads, but he has the sort of humble presence which comes alive with the onset of each song. It featured the two singles “Sleep Alone” and “Sun,” and preceded a short documentary about the band, entitled What We See, which followed the trio on tour during the summer of 2012.Ībout the Brixton Academy live record, the band’s performance sidesteps any apathy and they throw everything at the audience in terms of physicality. It marked the band’s first number one record to date and cemented the band’s status.Generally well-received, the album hit the number one spot on the Irish album charts, and number two in the United Kingdom. In 2012, Two Door Cinema Club returned with its sophomore album, the Jacknife Lee-produced Beacon, squeezed in amongst months of relentless touring.
