Del Amitri have shared the second single from their upcoming album ‘Fatal Mistakes’, called ‘It’s Feeling’.
Produced by Dan Austin, (Biffy Clyro, You Me At Six), ‘It’s Feeling’ provides a fresh taste for what to expect from the long-awaited âFatal Mistakesâ. It presents the brilliant sound of a 35-years-young band doing what they do best.
Talking about the new track, frontman Justin Currie said “Itâs a simple fact that human beings have no idea what makes them feel the way they do. Their feelings are often guided by instinct, which means that their actions aren’t always rational. Listening to new music is similar. You can explain what’s good or bad about a song, but it doesn’t mean anything if you don’t feel it.”
The new track also comes accompanied by a video, which was directed by Stuart Breadner. It opens by showing a man waiting anxiously as his friend lays unconscious in a hospital. It cuts to an alternate reality in which the stricken man is alert and moving, but he constantly faces symbolic frustration: a locked lighthouse, a bridge that leads nowhere. Instead, he braves a final swim to shore, resulting in a closing shot that blurs the boundaries between the two words.
âFatal Mistakesâ, will be the band’s first studio album in 19 years, when it releases on May 14th, and is available to pre-order here.
Here’s the tracklisting for the release

Del Amitri will celebrate the albumâs release by playing a special streamed show, details of which will be announced soon.
Throughout their first chapter, Del Amitri released a succession of hits – including âNothing Ever Happensâ, âAlways The Last To Knowâ and âRoll To Meâ – which became international radio staples, propelling a career that accomplished five UK Top 10 albums and 6 million sales. Having first reunited for a sold-out UK tour in 2014, the bandâs core duo started writing material ahead of a second run of packed shows in 2018. They realised that, without forcing it, they had created a bunch of songs that sounded âvery Del Amitri.â
