The Polyphonic Spree - The Fragile Army

Dallas symphonic rock group The Polyphonic Spree have signed with Gut Recordings imprint Institute Recordings for the release of their third full-length album, The Fragile Army. The new album's title was given to the group by director/filmmaker/artist Mike Mills, whose 2005 film Thumbsucker was scored by the Spree's Tim DeLaughter. The Fragile Army reveals a collection of sonic blasts filtered thru The Polyphonic Spree's trademark sound: an unorthodox blend of brass, strings, choir and auxiliary rock elements. The album explores a search for the zeal in life, by way of loss and frustration, confusion and clarity. Ultimately, the Spree discover the power of love and the collective of hope in songs such as "Running Away," "Light To Follow" and "Overblow Your Nest."

The album will be released in three different formats during the campain – the standard edition, a Special Limited Edition which will contain a DVD disc containing footage of the making of the album and a Limited 12” Gatefold vinyl release which will contain an Access Card which will allow the purchaser to download the album digitally.
