People In PLanes - Beyond The Horizon (2008)

Beyond The Horizon is the sophomore album of the Welsh indie rock band People in Planes.

People In Planes were in pre-production for their second album for Wind-Up records since they returned from the States in late 2006. They took a period off to rehearse new material and played a string of UK shows in late 2006 and early 2007 where they road-tested new material. New song titles include: “Baked”, “Evil With You”, “Get On The Flaw”, “Human Error”, “Better Than Life”, “I Wish That You’d Fall Apart” and “Tonight (The Sun Will Rise)” On February 7th 2008 People In Planes released Pretty Buildings, the first song from Beyond The Horizon as an internet download through myspace and the band’s mailing list.

Hey people. I hereby declare People In Planes are back! Our new project was recorded with four different producers in six studios across Wales, England and America, and we’ve put our entire souls into it. It’s been a long wait for all of us, and we’re really excited to present this first track to you- “Pretty Buildings”. –Gareth, Peter, Kris, John and Ian

The band headed out to SXSW in March to showcase songs from the new album before joining Jupiter One on a co-headlining tour across the States between March and April. Guitarist Peter Roberts blogged from the road on the band’s myspace revealing that the first radio single is set to be M’aidez, M’aidez, due sometime before the end of the first run of shows. On March 26th 2008, the first video from Beyond The Horizon, for the song Pretty Buildings, was released online as a purevolume exclusive. In addition, on this date the splash page of the band’s website changed revealing Beyond The Horizon as the title of the album with a tentative release date of Summer 2008.
