The Proper Ornaments announce album ‘Foxhole’

The Proper Ornaments - the project of James Hoare (Ultimate Painting) and Max Oscarnold (Toy) - have announced details of a second album.

‘Foxhole’, the follow-up to 2014 debut ‘Wooden Head’, will be released on 20th January, ahead of a string of UK tour dates.

“We ended up doing the whole thing there as the atmosphere suited the direction of the foxhole and we were more comfortable working on it in our own time,” says James in a press release. “We wanted to move in a slightly different direction from ‘Wooden Head’, away from the distorted guitars and into a more peaceful area.”

Listen to ‘Cremated (Blown Away)’ from the record below.

The Proper Ornaments’ tour dates are:

JANUARY
22 Leeds Brudenell Social Club Games Room
23 Glasgow Mono
24 Birmingham Hare & Hounds
26 London Moth Club
