Following on from the success of their double-platinum selling album Tourist and its Mercury-nominated platinum selling predecessor Vehicles and Animals, Deptford's finest Athlete return with their eagerly anticipated third album Beyond The Neighbourhood on 3rd Sept.

Produced and recorded by the band themselves at their own studio in South East London, Beyond The Neighbourhood is a record of true progression and real quality. Its songs are built around the same effortless hooks and snagging melodies that have been Athlete's trademark since their debut single, 'Westside', was released in March 2002. But the album glows with a newfound musical confidence, showing big leaps in terms of ambition, scope and creativity.

The album will be released on CD, LP & download, as well as a special edition CD/DVD featuring a 25 minute documentary 'Silent Play' following the band from the writing/recording of the album through to their warm up shows and sold out 3 night run at London Koko in July. The DVD also included 4 live tracks from Koko, as well as the video for 'Hurricane' and the rarely seen original video for early single 'You Got The Style' (directed by the highly acclaimed Shynola).
