With their sixth album, As I Try Not To Fall Apart out today via PIAS, White Lies have emphasis track “Blue Drift” in numerous playlists, and have released an extra format, a limited edition gold cassette album format, only available via the band’s store (order here).

The band’s Charles Cave says of “Blue Drift“: “Dare I say it this is another tip-toe into a more progressive-rock realm. The song feels very much a nighttime drive to me, winding empty roads, foreign air creeping in through the window. It’s a song about being humbled by the mind’s ability to lift us up and bring us down. It’s grand, full of longing and bombast, but there is an uneasiness to it too.
