Chvrches’ second album is “coming along very nicely”

Riding the synthy wave of their debut album ‘The Bones of What You Believe,’ Chvrches have shed further light on the progress towards album number two. Speaking to DIY earlier this month, the band’s Martin Doherty told us that they’d been doing “a lot of writing on the road. I think, initially, we were reluctant to do it,” he admits, “we sort of wanted to protect the dynamic of ‘three people in a room at once’ idea, because that’s the way that the first album came about. When you’ve been on tour as much as we have been in the past two years, you don’t really have a choice. You either create on the road or you don’t do anything and the idea of coming back after three years of doing absolutely nothing - and not even working those muscles creatively - is insane.”
