Starsailor Announce 'Good Souls: The Greatest Hits' With Two New Tracks

British indie rock band Starsailor have announced they will release 'Good Souls: The Greatest Hits', a compilation of their biggest hits and fan favourites, on September 18th via Parlophone.

The band's initial run of success saw both their 'Love is Here' debut album and the 2003 follow-up 'Silence is Easy' hit #2 on the charts as they raced to a total of 3 million sales. The album kicks off with the band’s three biggest hits in the shape of ‘Good Souls’ (#12), ‘Silence is Easy’ (#9) and ‘Alcoholic’ (#10). In addition to those tracks, the album features a further seven Top 40 hits, as well as deeper cuts such as ‘Tie Up My Hands’ and ‘Fidelity’ which became staples of the band’s live shows.

“It's been over 15 years since the band first formed and the songs still mean something to people,” says frontman James Walsh. “They still sing the words passionately back at us at gigs. We hear stories of how songs have soundtracked key moments in their lives. That's why we felt it was the right time to release this album - hopefully if the songs mean this much to our loyal fans this collection can help spread the word wider. People who know us for 'Four To The Floor' or 'Alcoholic' can delve a little deeper.”

The album features two brand new tracks which were recently recorded with producer Harry Rutherford at the famous Fisher Lane Studios. "’Give Up The Ghost’ came from the energy of being back together after so much time," explains Walsh. "It’s about not being ready to give up on something despite the challenges that you face."

The other new track is the ballad 'Hold On'. "The lyrics are about reassuring someone who has their life ahead of them and passing wisdom onto them," he adds. "We wanted to get an anthemic chorus which should get the crowd going."

The band have also announced plans for a headline show at The O2 later this year, they will play the 20,000 capacity venue in London on December 13 in support of their upcoming EP.

I want to know how many gigs we have done to get here," guitarist Sam Halliday said of their O2 date. "We have been quite lucky to build our following in the right way - the pub shows, then the theatre shows, then the warehouse shows. 

"It feels like a huge achievement. It is the thing we have been working very hard towards for a long time, but at the same time we feel confident and ready that we are experienced enough and have got enough fans and enough songs and enough records behind us to headline The O2. It will be the biggest moment of our career so far!"

Morrissey has announced the release of a limited edition 7-inch picture disc of his classic single "The Last of the Famous International Playboys" and a remastered version of his second album 'Kill Uncle' on April 8 via Parlophone Records.

Originally released in 1989, 'The Last of the Famous International Playboys' was Morrissey's third single and charted at #6 in the UK.

All three formats are backed with new songs: 'People are the Same everywhere (BBC live version)', 'Action is my Middle Name (BBC live version)' and 'The Kid’s a Looker (BBC live version)', recorded on Radio 2 in June 2011.

Also a remastered version of ‘Kill Uncle’ will be released that day, featuring a new tracklisting and cover art, with the addition of the songs ‘Pashernate Love’ and ‘East West’ (a Herman’s Hermits cover), as well the ‘live in studio’ version of ‘There’s a Place In Hell For Me and My Friends’.

01. Our Frank
02. Sing Your Life
03. Mute Witness
04. King Leer
05. Asian Rut
06. Pashernate Love
07. East West
08. Found Found Found
09. Driving Your Girlfriend Home
10. The Harsh Truth of the Camera Eye
11. There's a Place in Hell for Me and My Friends (live in the studio version)
12. (I'm) the End of the Family Line
