Hurts debut Some Kind Of Heaven




Mancunian electronic pop duo Hurts , have unveiled their first new material in over two years with Some Kind Of Heaven. The new track previews their forthcoming third album , due for release later this year.



The track was unveiled via the bands Facebook page. Hurts last studio album was 2013's underwhelming Exiles , which evoked a lukewarm commercial and critical response. This was in stark contrast to the mostly universal acclaim for 2010's stunning debut Happiness.

The album spawned the popular tracks Wonderful Life and Stay. Theo Hutchcraft spoke about the new record from Hurts
"We always try to make an album that covers all points of interest and I think that we're developing. Doing these two records and pushing it to the extreme in a pop sense with a song like 'Stay' and then turning around and doing the opposite, we now know the boundaries in which we exist."

"Considering the types of song we wrote on our second record, we go in the direction of a song like 'The Crow' for instance, which is like a Tarintino-esque mid-Western American sound, or we could go down the route of a song like 'The Road' which is very Nine Inch Nails or we could go the opposite way entirely and make a huge pop record but I guess that it will always fit with us,"
