Also, last week Elbow announced the release of their long-awaited B-sides album Dead In The Boot will be released on Monday 27th August. The collection — a nod to their debut album Asleep in the Back — contains 13 tracks spanning the length of the band’s 15-year career. Frontman Guy Garvey said of the compilation;


"None of our B-sides are album rejects. It’s a different space, usually just post finishing an album when all the members of Elbow are chiming and feeling very creative. This gives Dead in the Boot a real late night vibe."
