This is their first full studio album since their acclaimed long-player "Between Dog and Wolf" in 2013, which, according to The Times "marks a creative renaissance for the band from Bradford". This album saw New Model Army receive the best critical response of their career and top 30 chart positions in UK and German - their highest since "The Love of Hopeless Causes" 20 years previously. "Between Dog And Wolf" was shortly followed in 2014 by Matt Reid's fascinating and absorbing documentary feature film "Between Dog And Wolf: The New Model Army Story" which had a successful run at worldwide film festivals. Its excellent reviews on home entertainment release (described in their 4-star review by Mojo as an "uplifting rags-to-more-rags tale of the cult-like post punks") in turn created further world-wide interest in this unique and passionate group who have always remained true to themselves and successful on their own terms whilst remaining outside the mainstream.

"Winter" will be released on band's own Attack Attack label via Red Essential in the UK and Ireland and with earMUSIC worldwide. Formats include CD Hardcover Mediabook, Double 180g-Vinyl Gatefold, download and streaming.

"Beginning" through to the closing song "After Something" the album builds on the new directions taken by "Between Dog And Wolf", yet also has familiar echoes of the immediacy and engagement of the band's classic albums "The Ghost of Cain" and "Thunder and Consolation".

Says founder, lead Singer and main songwriter Justin Sullivan: "Between Dog And Wolf" opened up a lot of creative doors for us, so it was exciting to go and look inside. The results were not necessarily planned - as usual we felt our way - but I think "Winter" has a really strong identity. It is very much the sound of people in difficult places - something that so many of us can relate to at the moment, on a lot of different levels. It is a much more of a band album than "Between Dog And Wolf" and we made a deliberate choice in mixing it to sound more aggressive and a little less polished."
