Dancer

***Glasgow’s Dancer return with More or Less, their second full-length album and a bold leap forward for the band. The album features 12 new tracks, adding fresh energy and dynamics to the group’s signature blend of art-rock, post-punk and lo-fi charm. Originally titled More, the band reimagined the name after discovering a high-profile act had used it first resulting in More or Less, a fitting reflection of the album’s theme: every thing's the same, but every thing's different. The record finds Dancer pushing into brighter, more refined sonic territory without losing their raw, scrappy edge. Lead singles "Happy Halloween" and "Just Say Yes" showcase the band’s most immediate and catchy material to date, while tracks like "Getting It Wrong Every Time" and the contemplative bookends "Legend" and "Calm Down" highlight their growing emotional and musical range. Recorded at Chime Studios in Glasgow with engineer Ross McGowan, More or Less was born during a winter of personal and political turbulence—marked by bereavement, illness, and grim weather. In response, Dancer offer a record that chooses daydreams over despair, and energy over entropy.
