It's been a successful year for The Invisible since the release of their debut album this time in 2009. With a Mercury nomination for their self-titled album, as well as lucrative support slots for the likes of Hot Chip, it's fair to say that things have been steadily on the up. Now they plan to release 'Jacob and the Angel' as a free download on the 15th March.
They've claimed that it's a free download for fans, the vast majority of whom will already have the album, so I suspect it's more likely to try and attract new fans, in which case it's an odd choice. It has a very ethereal and floaty chillout vibe to it, which we've seen before in breakthrough single 'London Girl' and their cover of 'Come Together'. I'd like to see them make something like 'Monster's Ball' (an early 7" single) available again or album closer 'Time Waits'. Both of these songs show a heavier side to their music that the casual listener may not have picked up on before. Check out the video below and let me know what you think.
