Spector are following their 2015 album ‘Moth Boys’ with not one, but a series of EPs.
Speaking in the new issue of Dork – which also features Shame, Dream Wife, Ezra Furman, The Wombats, The Orielles, Franz Ferdinand, and loads more – frontman Fred Macpherson says it was the right time to make a comeback.
“The last few years have been generally positive, though if you asked me that on a different day you’d probably get a different answer,” he explains.
“It’s good to be doing music again; it kinda took us a while to get stuff back together. There was a point where it didn’t feel like anyone was in a rush to do anything, and then recently everything has just pulled into place, and it felt like the right time.”
“I just felt like now we have these songs ready and people and fans are keen to hear them, well, all five of them,” he jokes, “it was time. We had a couple of songs, including ‘Untitled In D’ that just really feel like they would make more sense out than in and we just felt like when we had the right songs, and we had the right way of getting them out, then that would be the moment.”
