The Planet Of Sound

23 APRIL – THE MOTH CLUB, LONDON 

IS TROPICAL have released their new album ‘Black Anything‘ today via NYC based Axis Mundi Records.

---

A labour of love and tenacity, Black Anything saw IS TROPICAL travel to almost every corner of the globe on a shoestring budget to record it. Wanting to mirror their recording experience, the band have released the record in parts, each one representing one of the continents it was recorded in.

---

From the nocturnal sounds of the North American installment (Pt.1 – Crawl/On My Way), to the eclectic pop of the European one (Pt. 2 – Cruise Control/Say), from the rapturous beats of the African part (Pt.3 – Fall/Lights On), to the sunlit tones of the Asian one (Pt.4 – Follow The Sun/Now Stop) and to the last part, South America (Believe/What You Want), IS TROPICAL take us with them on their journey of discovery and experimentation.

‘Black Anything‘ will be released on five 10” transparent picture disc instalments, containing 2 tracks per vinyl and displaying the continent in which it was conceived. The five vinyls when displayed on top of each other create the globe, unifying the concept as a whole – each vinyl existing as an artwork and tribute to the continent it was recorded in.
