Love and Endings
no-man - Love and Endings (Burning Shed, bshed 1201)
Released 12th March 2012
love and endings is a document of no-man's powerful performance at the Leamington Spa Assembly on October 14th, 2011.
Using its past as a means of discovering new possibilities, the band's trademark lush romanticism was subjected to a sometimes radical makeover.
Retaining the intimacy and sophistication of the band's studio work while adding an edgy Rock attack absent from much of its recorded output, the material is drawn from all eras of no-man's music.
love and endings includes the previously unreleased song, beaten by love, which dates from the earliest days of the band.
love and endings sees no-man's core duo of Tim Bowness and Steven Wilson joined by classical violinist Steve Bingham and regular collaborators Michael Bearpark, Andrew Booker, Stephen Bennett and Pete Morgan.
Available in cd/dvd (deluxe digi-pack) and limited edition heavyweight double vinyl (in gatefold sleeve) formats. All copies of the limited vinyl edition of love and endings sold out within 48 hours.
For a full track-listing and details, visit the love and endings micro-site.

Mick Karn
Tim and Steven were very sad to hear about Mick Karn's death from cancer. Their thoughts are with his close friends and family. A unique player, Mick was an inspiration no-man had the privilege to work with.
