Cymbals is a four-piece band that is based in London. After making its debut album Unlearn, in 2011, the band quickly released a second LP, Sideways, Sometimes, in early 2012. The latter was recorded in a mere five days at Lightship 95, a recording studio permanently moored in the River Thames. Preceded by two singles, "The Natural World" and "The End," and a fair amount of national anticipation, Cymbals' 2014 full-length record The Age Of Fracture was met with critical and commercial acclaim.
