Via Easy Life Records/Red Essential brengt Lower Than Atlantis op 3 februari 2017 het vijfde album Safe In Sound uit. Nadat het viertal eerder de track Work For It online zette, ging de eerste officiële single Dumb in première op BBC. Bij Dumb is in de YouTube studio’s in Londen een 360° video opgenomen.
Safe In Sound is de opvolger van het in 2014 verschenen Lower Than Atlantis, het meest succesvolle album van de band tot nu toe waarmee ze definitief een plaats veroverde in top van de Britse rockmuziek.
Voorman Mike Duce: ‘‘Everything we achieved with the self titled completely surpassed our expectations and now it’s time to make an album that can really take us to the next level. We’re headlining the biggest shows we’ve ever played so we’ve written what we think is a record big enough to be played in those venues. We’ve spent a lot more time refining our sound as well as trying some new techniques, Ben has engineered a lot of the record and Eddy has designed the aesthetic so this project is definitely very close to our hearts. We just wanted ‘Safe In Sound’ to be a true representation of where this band is nearly ten years on! This album tackles concepts such as depression, rejection, being in love and monetary worries to name a few so there’s definitely something in there that most people can relate to. We’re certain that this album is the best work from this band and can’t wait for everyone to hear it! The album title is born from the idea of being safe and sound but being safe within music.”
