Including the single You You You, the album was recorded with long-time collaborator Paul Savage (Mogwai, Belle and Sebastian, Franz Ferdinand) . Vinyl is released as a double LP in a gatefold sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eI Get Noise\u003cbr\u003eYou You You\u003cbr\u003eBe a Man\u003cbr\u003eFighting For You\u003cbr\u003eGlamour Magick\u003cbr\u003eGape\u003cbr\u003eUnder Offer\u003cbr\u003eBasic Physics\u003cbr\u003eSunsong\u003cbr\u003eDollar Park\u003cbr\u003eMr. Splitfoot\u003cbr\u003eAmpersand\u003cbr\u003eFragments\u003cbr\u003eBeats Per Minute\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arab Strap","offers":[{"title":"Yellow Double Vinyl LP","offer_id":53229778796838,"sku":"ROCKACT173LPX","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Double Vinyl LP","offer_id":53229778829606,"sku":"ROCKACT173LP","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/7734\/2621\/files\/HALF-TOLDTALESCOVEREMBARGOED10AMBST20_05.jpg?v=1779267435","url":"https:\/\/www.limitedadditionrecords.com\/products\/half-told-tales","provider":"Limited Addition Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
