Neurot Recordings will reissue The Burden Of Hope, the 2003 debut from Grails, coming Sept. 29 including variant vinyl options. The album first released in October 2023, 20 years ago, with a lineup of: Emil Amos – drums, Timothy Horner – violin, Alex Hall – guitar, William Slater – piano/bass, and Zak Riles – guitar.
"In 2003 we sent a package to the Neurot Recordings mailing address with a demo CDR that contained much of what would become The Burden Of Hope. When Steve Von Till called us out of the blue and offered to release the record, it cleared the weeds to reveal a path that we’ve been traversing ever since and which would come to define the rest of our lives. It means an enormous amount to us to be able to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the record with Neurot," says guitarist Hall.
