The Coral to release 8-year-old album, Curse Of Love

The Coral have announced a break from their indefinite hiatus, announcing the release of Curse Of Love - an album recorded eight years ago. 

The band declared that they were taking a break from music two years ago, but are now set to release a 'psych-folk album' from 2006. 

Frontman James Skelley tweeted: 

Just to clarify the curse of love was recorded 8 years ago,it's not a new album.

The hype began last week when 'new' track 'Wrapped In Blue' was premiered on BBC 6 Music (skip to the 16 minute mark here to hear it - or check out a Youtube rip below). 

Portishead's Geoff Barrow, who debuted the track, revealed that the album was recorded between making The Invisible Invasion in 2005 and the end of its promotion cycle.

"They recorded this very cool album on an eight-track cassette player," Barrow said. "It never really got finished."

The band have revealed that Curse Of Love will be released 'in the next few weeks' via their own Skeleton Key label. There is currently no word on whether or not the band have plans to tour.
