2012 release, the eighth studio album from the veteran Alt-Rock band led by David Gedge. "Valentina" comes four years after 2008's critically acclaimed El Rey. Recorded in the wilds of France, the suburbs of Los Angeles and the lanes of Brighton, it shimmers with near perfection. The 10 track Valentina rumbles in with the crunchy statement track 'You're Dead' vibrating with familiar overdriven guitars and Gedge's words dripping with finality. The first single, 'You Jane', comes next; a rhythmic rock `n' roll treat, laden with forlorn wanting and letting the thing you love go free.
