My, how they grow! Denver pop nuggets The Apples in Stereo will release their seventh album, Travellers in Space and Time, April 20 through a holy trinity of record imprints: Yep Rock, Elephant 6. Seventh album! It seems like yesterday when I came across bright lil’ singles/EPs and witnessed a barnstorming basement set by Robbert Bobbert Schneider and his touring company at the time. At this present time, Schneider is joined primarily by longtime band members John Hill and Eric Allen, as well as old friends Bill Doss (Olivia Tremor Control, Sunshine Fix), John Ferguson (Big Fresh), and John Dufilho (The Deathray Davies). Time marches on, but the irresistible songs remain the same.
Travellers in Space and Time:
01. The Code
02. Dream About the Future
03. Hey Elevator
04. Strange Solar System
05. Dance Floor
06. C.P.U.
07. No One in the World
08. Dignified Dignitary
09. No Vacation
10. Told You Once
11. It’s All Right
12. Next Year at About the Same Time
13. Floating in Space
14. Nobody But You
15. Wings Away
16. Time Pilot
Given that the show I saw moons ago was an exuberant display of joy, you can imagine what kind of spectacle The Apples will put on in April and May with an expanded back catalogue and can’t-miss new album tracks at their disposal.
