Unexpected, delightful - Vision Fortune last released music in 2015, and so odds were off that we’d hear from them again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut against all odds, Vision Fortune III is coming out on Gringo Records, following the release of their last album ‘Country Music’ on ATP Records.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe trio first agreed to record a new album as somewhat of a dare over a marathon pasta and wine heavy luncheon in Palermo, Sicily. Waking up with sore heads, they realised in mild panic that flight tickets had been purchased, a cottage in rural Wales was booked, and it was too late to pull out.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd so it was - the Fortunes arrived in Machynlleth Wales in Spring of the following year. The rules were simple - takes were live, songs minimal and the fireplace kept roaring.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrummer Andres Ayerbe’s strict roast lamb dinner cooking schedule resulted in an album less frenetic and agitated than previous work - instead, III explores a softer, more subdued and subtle side of Vision Fortune. Additional overdubs were recorded in New York City and Birmingham, by AC Williams and Alex Townend. III was completed - a new, leaner Vision Fortune. Like a good lamb dinner - more meat, less fat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePress Quotes for Country Music:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"An impressively brutal record\" NME 8\/10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Immersive and introspective musique concréte rippling rippling with dub rhythms, orchestral strings, tolling bells and discordant drones coming close to the alien beauty of Mica Levi's sonically extreme soundtrack work.\" Uncut 7\/10\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Unsettling, strangely cathartic and hook-free (in a good way).\" Dazed (\"Twenty albums to look out for in 2015\")\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Assembling whole scrapyards of sound and turning them into something better than what went before\" The Guardian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Swaddling the senses in soundwaves, Minimal ambient sketches and harsh electronics abound on this fascinating 12-song affair\" The FADER\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Basically just one long, connected droney throb.
