The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows (Deluxe) - Damon Albarn (Vinyl) (BD)

This is a deluxe edition vinyl LP pressing of The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows by Damon Albarn. The Nearer The Fountain, More Pure The Stream Flows, the new studio album from Damon Albarn, will be released by new label homeTransgressive Records. The album was originally intended as an orchestral piece inspired by the landscapes of Iceland. This last year has seen Albarn return to the music in lockdown and develop the work to 11 tracks that further explore themes of fragility, loss, emergence and rebirth. The result is a panoramic collection of songs with Albarn as a storyteller. The album title is taken from a John Clare poem Love and Memory.

Albarn says “I have been on my own dark journey while making this record and it led me to believe that a pure source might still exist.”
