''Hope Fading Nightly'' is the third studio album by English indie rock band Tellison, released on 18 September 2015. Produced by Andy Jenkin, the album was the band's first release through Alcopop! Records. The band focused on creating a more guitar centric album, moving away from using samples and keyboards that featured on their previous albums. It also features their longtime touring guitarist Richard Peter Snapes, who departed the band upon its completion. Tellison recorded the album over a nine-month period, working at REX Studio's in Highbury, London with Jenkin producing his first full-length album.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.andyjenkin.co.uk/ )〕 The album's release was preceded by pay what you want singles "Tact is Dead", released on 5 March 2015, "Boy" released on 2 July 2015 with third single "Wrecker" being released on 3 November 2015. ==Recording and production== After finishing their record deal with Naim Edge, having their management quit, their lawyer tell the band he did not wish to represent them anymore and their booking agent quit the music industry the band made the decision to retreat back into their jobs outside of Tellison. "We let Tellison lie and dealt with the body blows of having everyone around you feel like you aren’t worth the effort" singer and guitarist Stephen Davidson explained in an interview. The band's disappointment with the performance of ''The Wages of Fear'' and their feeling that they have not been as successful as they had hoped would become a recurring theme for the Davidson and Peter Phillips' lyrics.〔 Around a year later the band reconvened and began working on new material that was demoed by Davidson and Phillips in June 2012. After attempts to sign a new record-deal proved fruitless, the band decided to self finance the sessions.〔 In July 2012, Davidson retreated to a "creaky old house by the sea" near Gullane, Scotland where he wrote the song "Wrecker", although had previously intended to write the entire album. The band officially began recording on 7 November 2013 with producer Andy Jenkin, a close friend of the band who was himself "figuring out a new studio and a new way of working". The band decided to work with Jenkin as they felt he could encapsulate the middle ground between the organic "guys in a practice room" or "punk-rock" sound and polished "pop". Recording took place at REX Studio in Highbury, London.〔 The sessions for the album predominately took place between jobs. "I’d work ten hours a day then catch the bus to Highbury and stay in the studio until either I or Andy passed out or started shouting at each other" Davidson recalled.〔 The band produced sixteen tracks during the album sessions, which was eventually narrowed down to twelve.〔 Around six months into recording, guitarist Richard Peter Snapes left the band in order to concentrate on his career as a baker.〔 It took the band around nine months to complete the record, which Davidson attributed to "I’m a stickler for detail and we spent a lot of time trying to make sure parts complimented one another".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hope Fading Nightly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
