Join Unbelievable Truth for the Rich Inner Life tour 2025. We’ll be playing songs from our back catalogue and our first new album in 25 years, Rich Inner Life (out 26 Sept). Tickets on sale 10am 23rd May, we look forward to seeing you there.
------------------------------
In March, Unbelievable Truth released ‘Citizens Band EP’, the title track of which - a hypnotic, piano-led plea for community and solidarity among friends - appears on the upcoming album Rich Inner Life, out 26/9.
Before splitting in 2000, Unbelievable Truth released two critically acclaimed albums, developing a passionate fan base both at home and abroad, particularly in Japan. In 2023, Yorke, bassist Jason Moulster and drummer Nigel Powell reunited for some gigs to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their 1998 debut album ‘Almost Here’ (Virgin Records), and following these shows the band began writing music together again.
“There’s just something about when the three of us make music at the same time,” explains Powell. “It’s greater than the sum of its parts in ways that I can’t describe.”
That ineffable but very tangible chemistry carries through to the nine songs that make up ‘Rich Inner Life’. It kicks in the moment the urgent paranoia of “You Got It” starts the record and continues until the incredible crescendo of finale “A Clear Line” dissolves into silence. In the between, you can’t just hear how much it means for the band to be making music with each other again, you can actually feel it.
Time passing has led to a subtle yet significant sonic shift for the band, and a palpable sense of musical freedom and exuberance. ‘Rich Inner Life’ is the sound of a band who have both picked up from where they left off some two decades or so ago, but who have also injected all that extra experience, insight and pain into their music.
“There was a real joy to doing this,” says Powell, “because we were doing it all ourselves. There was no pressure, we just decided to start making the album, and we knew that it would be finished when it was finished.”
