New Model Army release 'Winter' (Orchestral Version) from Sinfonia
SINFONIA
THE NEW ALBUM OUT SEPTEMBER 15TH
VIA EARMUSIC
PRE-ORDER HERE
New Model Army are about to release one of the defining albums of their long and respected career. Sinfonia, recorded with the Sinfonia Leipzig orchestra, is a masterpiece from a band who can somehow make it all look (and sound) easy.
'Winter (Orchestral Version)' is the second single taken from this magnum opus, and it is five minutes of sheer class from front to back. The arrangements, meticulously put together by Shir-Ran Yinon and conducted by Cornelius During, are a new benchmark of the tried-and-trusted 'Rock band meets Orchestra' scenario, with none of the subtleties – and conversely moments of total musical abandonment and expression – obscured by what is essentially a 40-piece band.
'Winter' is a powerful track musically and narratively, with Justin Sullivan imploring, "Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter"; a wish from the protagonist asking for a metaphorical escape from the hell that they find themselves in. However, the song offers a glimpse of hope by its end, with talk of redemption, reconciliation, and healing.

New Model Army are a band who have earned respect throughout their career for not only making less obvious choices than one might expect, but also daring to make music that reveals itself more with each listen.

A Strictly Limited earBOOK Edition with Double-CD, DVD, Blu-ray, 80-page book and an exclusive Bonus CD with 8 songs from the band’s SO36 show in Berlin on July 17th, 2022, as well as various bundles will become available via an exclusive direct to consumer web shop.
