The Leisure Society stream new LP The Fine Art Of Hanging On

08 April 2015, 16:38 | Written by Laurence Day

The Leisure Society are streaming new album The Fine Art Of Hanging On in full ahead of its release next week.

In our 8/10 review of the record, we said that it is "a loosely themed collection of songs about holding on to something - be it a strained relationship, a career in an industry that is way past its peak viability, even life itself - The Fine Art of Hanging On fine-tunes The Leisure Society's trademarks: brilliantly observed, carefully crafted lyrics and rich melodies placed in an assortment of folk-rock and baroque-pop (check out the sumptuous coda to “Wide Eyes at Villains”) settings that manage to combine richly layered detail with disarming directness."

The Fine Art Of Hanging On is out via Full Time Hobby on 13 April.

Stream the record in full below.
