These two songs were written, recorded and mixed during the sessions for Arab Strap's' first album in forever "As Days Get Dark". As much as they loved them, they couldn't find a place for them on the final album. Maybe it's because they seem to have their own distinct identities, but sometimes a song just sounds better on it's own, when it's not part of a crowd and vying for attention. So, to celebrate the anniversary of the album's release, we present As Days Get Dark's two runaway loners; a couple of black sheep who might not click with the rest of the family but, even though they aren't very happy, are still worth a cuddle. Available with download code and on coloured vinyl, limited to 1000 copies worldwide. 1. Aphelion2. Flutter
