Rustin Man (former Talk Talk bassist Paul Webb) has announced a new solo record called Drift Code. It’s out February 1 via Domino. Today, he’s shared the album’s lead single “Vanishing Heart” and its accompanying video. Watch the Edwin Burdis-directed clip below.
Rustin Man’s last record Out of Season arrived in 2002. It was a collaborative LP with Portishead’s Beth Gibbons. Webb recorded Drift Code in his home—a converted barn in Essex—in the years following that release. Talk Talk and O’rang member Lee Harris recorded drums, while Webb recorded the other instruments himself.
“Through the necessity of recording over a long period of time, the album has a kind of unfixed or uprooted quality,” Webb said in a statement. “As if the songs belong nowhere so hopefully belong everywhere.” See the Drift Code tracklist and artwork below.
