“We’ve been sitting on this album for a long time, dying for you all to hear it. And release day is finally here. It’s a huge privilege for us to still be doing this job, four albums and ten years later. The Dream took us a long time but we think it’s been worth it and we hope you agree. We can’t wait to hear what you think and we hope you love it as much as we do. Thank you and much love from us three.”
Hailing from Leeds, UK the band was formed in 2007-08 when four friends met at Leeds University. They combined elements of electronic music with pop, folk, and guitar music to create a psychedelic alternative sound that is uniquely their own. The band consists of Joe Newman on guitar, Gus Unger-Hamilton on keyboards, and Thom Sonny Green on drum set. Gwilym Sainsbury left the band in 2014 shortly after alt-J’s huge debut album An Awesome Wave.
