Teenage Fanclub: Do Not Dare To Dream (indie exclusive, opaque orange vinyl) [MERGE]

Why you'll love it

Teenage Fanclub's 13th album, and their first since 2023's Nothing Lasts Forever. They went further than ever to make it, to Black Bay Studios on the Isle of Great Bernera in the Outer Hebrides, where a church organ and a pile of synths joined the guitars and those glorious harmonies.

This edition

• Indie exclusive
• Opaque orange vinyl
• 10 songs

About the album

Norman Blake and Raymond McGinley lead the way with longtime bandmates Euros Childs, Francis Macdonald and Dave McGowan. Lead single "Day In The Sun" is a gentle meditation on renewal, and the title track might be the prettiest thing they've done in years.

Nearly four decades in, the Fannies still make it sound easy.
