Dreamland is the third studio album by British psychedelic pop band Glass Animals, released in August 2020 via Wolf Tone.
Glass Animals are an English psychedelic pop band formed in Oxford in 2010, who are led by singer, songwriter, and producer Dave Bayley. The group also features his childhood friends Joe Seaward, Ed Irwin-Singer and Drew MacFarlane
At the heart of Dreamland lies the quietly enigmatic Dave Bayley, the bands frontman and producer extraordinaire who’s work extends far beyond that of Glass Animals, with credits including Joey Bada$$, Flume, Wale, Khalid and most recently Denzel Curry on the late 2019 single “Tokyo Drifting.”
For Bayley, Dreamland is a nostalgic memoir of his life so far, covering expansive and difficult ground and holding nothing back. It’s packed full of personal experiences, none more emotional than when the bands drummer Joe Seaward was involved in a monstrous bike accident in July 2018 which threatened his life, and that of Glass Animals altogether.
Dreamland is the band's first album since How To Be A Human Being (2016) and was written and produced almost entirely by frontman Dave Bayley and features heavily autobiographical lyrics, a radical difference from the band's previous work.
It derives musical and lyrical inspiration from Bayley's childhood in Texas, particularly from the popular culture and media of 1990s and early 2000s America. The album has been described as being "drenched in" nostalgia and is structured around a series of interludes of audio from Bayley's childhood home videos. Dreamland was influenced by the R&B and hip hop music from the early 2000s, and features an appearance from American rapper Denzel Curry on “Tokyo Drifting”.
Five singles were released from the album prior to its release: "Tokyo Drifting" (with Denzel Curry), "Your Love (Déjà Vu)", the eponymously named "Dreamland", "Heat Waves" and "It's All So Incredibly Loud".
This album is on 180 gram black vinyl with a printed inner sleeve, pressed in Europe via Wolf Tone Records.
