Simple Minds today debuted the second single off their forthcoming album Walk Between Worlds, a 5+ minute track called “The Signal and The Noise” that the group says “revisits the glassy guitars and new wave grooves of the post-punk era.” Check it out for yourself below.
Walk Between Worlds, due out Feb. 2, will be Simple Minds’ first collection of new songs since 2014’s Big Music, and the band will premiere the material at special three-part concerts in the U.K. and Europe. The group also has announced summer dates with The Pretenders in the U.K.
The band previously released the song “Magic” off the new album.
Stream “The Signal and The Noise” below.

Marginally better than the last one but ultimately forgettable. Also, ‘glassy’ guitars? Wtf does that mean?
This is the same group that did 70 Cities As Love Bring the Fall?
And Glittering Prize?

Brilliant song , can’t comment on the deaf people stuck in the past , usually the same people who have slated them for years , but for myself and many more, top Notch !
After 40 years they continue to change and evolve, fair play .
