Rhinoceros

Evocative and intense, 'My Hotel Year' is the debut solo album from Tim Bowness, marking Tim's return to the One Little Indian label after a decade's absence.

Primarily written and produced with No-Man collaborators David Picking and Stephen Bennett, the album was recorded in England and Germany over a six-month period. Hugh Hopper (Soft Machine), Roger Eno, Michael Bearpark, Peter Chilvers and Centrozoon's Markus Reuter, also make superb contributions.

Includes free 'Sleepwalker' single (also available separately.)

'One of the year's most original, personal and haunting records'
(Martin Aston - The Times/MOJO)

This new 2 disc Snapper edition of No-Man's Together We're Stranger comes with the original stereo mix on CD, a new booklet featuring sleeve notes from Mojo's Johnny Black, improved packaging and an audiophile 5.1 DVD-A surround sound disc, also including high resolution 24 bit stereo. Additionally, the DVD-A disc includes the Break Up For Real (drum mix), (bluecoda), the video for Things I Want To Tell You and a photo gallery.

This edition comes with a postcard exclusive to Burning Shed.

Coming two years after the critical and word of mouth cult success of 2001's 'Returning Jesus', 'Together We're Stranger' saw No-Man extending further the reach of its panoramic soundscapes and cracked ballads. Boasting impressive performances from Ben Castle (clarinets), Roger Eno (harmonium), 'Lord' Peter Chilvers (bass) and Gramophone's David Picking (percussion, trumpet), amongst others, the album lays claim to being the most powerful and emotionally direct album in No-Man's history.

This 180g black vinyl version of the album comes in a deluxe gatefold sleeve and contains a previously unreleased 'drum' mix of 'The Break-up For Real' and the album outtake 'bluecoda'.
