Brighton based 3 piece The XCERTS can today announce a limited reissue of a remastered version of their wonderful debut album ”In The Cold Wind We Smile’, which is 10 years old in 2019. The reissue will come with a digital bonus album with 13 extra tracks including unreleased songs, live versions, early demos and more. The band will also be heading out on a UK headline tour through late November and early December to celebrate this reissue and 10 years of the album, all dates and album reissue track listings are below.
Singer/guitarist Murray MacLeod explains a bit about the thinking behind the reissue:
“To think it’s been 10 years since the release of our debut record
is pretty wild. It’s been a hell of a journey and the fact we are still
an active band who are able to reissue a record for an anniversary is
really cool. We’re currently in the studio
working on our new album but we’ve been knee deep in nostalgia putting
together the reissue and we’re really looking forward to playing the
album in its entirety throughout November / December. We
haven’t
played some of these songs since the release of the record so it’s
going to be a trip but we’re stoked to hit the road and turn up the
amplifiers in celebration.”
