THESE NEW PURITANS

Ring the bells: the brothers are back.

Crooked Wing is the fifth album by These New Puritans and their first new studio album for six years, produced by Jack Barnett and longtime collaborator and Bark Psychosis pioneer Graham Sutton, as well as featuring guest appearances from an eclectic and unpredictable cast of collaborators, from Caroline Polachek to veteran British jazz double bassist Chris Laurence.

The new album, by the enduring and singular cult experimental duo, is set to be one of 2025’s most striking and original releases, one that rewards deep immersion and surrender.

Sonically it ranges from the brutal to the beautiful, and cements TNP’s reputation for visionary music that defies categorisation and convention.

“A crooked wing is an ear, you have one on each side of your body, and they have a rippled shape. Maybe if you’re lucky they can help you fly.”
