As Days Get Dark is the much anticipated and welcomed return of Arab Strap. Their first album in 16 years entered the UK album chart in the Top 20 and was shortlisted for The Scottish Album of The Year. "As Days Get Dark'' features the singles “The Turning of Our Bones”, “Here Comes Comus!” and “Fable of the Urban Fox”. Arab Strap are songwriter and musicians, Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton and together have created an album that is sometimes wry, sometimes dark but most of all a storytelling masterpiece.
