After a busy 2017 touring the US, Catalonian post-punk purveyors MOURN have just announced their third album Sorpresa Familia. The plainly-titled lead single 'Barcelona City Tour' encapsulates the band's philosophy "to understand records as personal diaries", through a whirlwind trip around their famous hometown. Musically sharp and lyrically witty, 'Barcelona City Tour' is a heavy-hitting piece of unapologetic punk-rock for the masses. Discussing the inspiration behind Sorpresa Familia the band explain, "This album sums up everything we’ve lived during the past two years, it wasn’t easy to open up, but we did it anyway without fear. Every frustration, disappointment, delusion, anger… We got everything out, we liberated ourselves and now we’re ready for everything that comes up...Of all we’ve lived, we keep the experiences, what was learned, all the mistakes and successes. Now we know life is SORPRESA (surprise), but above all it is FAMILIA (family).” It comes out via Captured Tracks on the 15th of June. -Holly Mullineaux
