The Polyphonic Spree De-robe

The Polyphonic Spree have de-robed and have launched a rather fetching new outfit.

The sprawling collective are now adorned in an all black combat kit with hearts, red crosses and a Polyphonic Spree logo.

Musical director Tim DeLaughter said: “The image of the "old robe look" is actually us in the robes...we refer to it as our "badge of strength" ...we always liked the fact it was in abstract form.

“A mass of some type, not particular to robes. The heart is a symbol of care and thoughtfulness.  The cross represents first aid...all these as humans, we're capable of.  It's just a reminder. We are The Fragile Army.”

The band are now taking ‘The Fragile Army’ moniker from the title of their forthcoming new album.
