Ride Announce New LP 'This Is Not A Safe Place', Stream "Future Love"

British shoegaze pioneers Ride have announced the release of their sixth studio album 'This Is Not A Safe Place'.

The follow-up to Weather Diaries, will be out on August 16th via Wichita Recordings, and was once again produced by Erol Alkan, and mixed by Alan Moulder with Caesar Edmunds at Assault and Battery in London. Pre-order your copy here.

Gathering influences from sources such as the Jean Michel Basquiat exhibition at the Barbican, and the post punk sound of The Fall and Sonic Youth, Ride have made an album which contains echoes of their earliest days as a band, while bringing these elements into 2019. Both musically and lyrically, this is clearly an album made by a band who love being back together and who are at the very top of their game.

Of their new single, Andy Bell said, "Future Love is a song about the beginning of a relationship, when everything feels possible.".
