Twelve reasons why you should buy the new album!!!

Epic Pop pioneers My life Story have announced the release of a brand-new album entitled ‘Loving you is killing Me’ on 9th of February 2024, via Exilophone Records / Republic of Music. The new record arrives ahead of a UK tour in 2024, with dates in Brighton, London, Birmingham, Bristol and beyond... you can find tickets and details by clicking: Here. The band's fifth studio album ‘Loving you is killing Me’, follows the release of MLS’ last critically acclaimed album ‘World Citizen’, which was released in 2019. The new album discusses themes of empathy, profaneness, vaingloriousness, coercive behaviour and naturism.

The record, published by Mute Song, has been written and produced by Jake Shillingford alongside Nick Evans and mixed by Ben Hillier who produced two Depeche Mode albums as well as working with Blur, Patrick Wolf, Nadine Shah and Peter Perrett. The record features recent singles 'Numb, Numb, Numb', Tits and Attitude' and 'I'm a God' alongside seven brand new tracks. Headed up by charismatic frontman Jake Shillingford, My Life Story, became a pioneering force in the Brit-Pop movement scoring six UK top forty singles and a top forty album inspiring the era's orchestral identity. Combining playful lyrics with epic Pop, My life Story formed in Southend in 1984. By the early 90s, lead singer Jake Shillingford had grown the band into a flamboyant orchestral eleven piece with string and brass section.

Their passionate, often chaotic live shows lead to Giles Martin (The Beatles) recording tracks for their debut album ‘Mornington Crescent’ after discovering them at the London, Marquee. Signed to Parlophone in 1996, the band released ‘The Golden Mile’ which spawned most hit singles including '12 reasons why I love Her', 'Strumpet' and 'Sparkle'. ‘Joined up Talking’ followed on Andrew Lloyd Webber's It Records in 2000, featuring sixth hit single 'It's a girl Thing'. Many collaborations followed including Morrissey, The Pogues and Marc Almond. My life Story performed Glastonbury Pyramid stage and Reading Festival four times. They supported Blur and Pulp and are one of the only bands to headline over Oasis.

By 2001 the band ceased all touring and recording. The 00's saw several sporadic celebratory reunion shows at London, Shepherds Bush, Empire, UK however by 2016, Shillingford wished to tour more frequently, retiring the orchestral ensemble. A two year run of 90's nostalgia festival shows, featuring a streamlined, Alternative Rock line up, led to a boost in profile. This inspired an appetite for new music, spawning the fan funded album 'World Citizen’, released in 2019 to wide ranging critical acclaim.
