Simple Minds Unveils Lost Album ‘Lost in the Haze’ After 40 Years

 

In a shocking move, Scottish rock legends Simple Minds have announced the release of a lost album, titled ‘Lost in the Haze’, which has been hidden away in the band’s archives for over 40 years. The album, which was recorded in 1982, has never been officially released and has been the subject of much speculation and rumor among fans.

 

According to the band’s lead vocalist, Jim Kerr, ‘Lost in the Haze’ was recorded during a tumultuous period in the band’s history, and was ultimately shelved due to creative differences and personal struggles. “We were going through a lot of changes at the time, and the album just didn’t feel right,” Kerr explained in a statement. “But listening back to it now, I think it’s some of our best work.”

 

The album features 10 previously unreleased tracks, including the title track ‘Lost in the Haze’, which showcases the band’s signature blend of atmospheric soundscapes and introspective lyrics. Other highlights include ‘Ghost Town’, a haunting ballad that features Kerr’s soaring vocals, and ‘Fire in the Night’, a high-energy rock track with a driving beat and catchy guitar riffs.

 

‘Lost in the Haze’ is set to be released on October 15th, and will be available on CD, vinyl, and digital formats. The album will also include a deluxe edition, which will feature bonus tracks, rare photos, and liner notes from Kerr and guitarist Charlie Burchill.

 

Simple Minds has also announced a series of live dates to support the release of ‘Lost in the Haze’, including a headlining show at the iconic Glasgow Barrowland Ballroom. The band will perform the album in its entirety, along with a selection of their greatest hits.

 

Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of ‘Lost in the Haze’, and the band’s social media channels have been flooded with excitement and nostalgia. “This is a dream come true for Simple Minds fans,” said one fan. “We’ve been waiting for this album for decades, and it’s finally here.”

 

‘Lost in the Haze’ is a must-listen for fans of Simple Minds and anyone who loves classic rock music. With its timeless sound and themes, it’s an album that will resonate with listeners of all ages.
