The term was later used as the slang term For UK police vans. Nothing much has changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The music on The Black Maria weaves and shifts between gothic\/industrial, neo-classical and dark ambient soundscapes, with founding member Martin Bowes\u2019s lyrics fearlessly exploring the themes that bind and break us all &#8211; life, love, longing, loss and death; from the politics of manipulation: personal and state to the uncertainties of theosophical and philosophical thought. delivered in his dangerously anarchic yet melancholic growl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaming up with the glorious baroque female vocalists Emke from Black Nail Cabaret, Elisa Day from Hetaira Decr\u00e9pita and Yvette from Vaselyne is a genius move from the ATTRITION founder, with their voices lending filigrees of ghostly ambience to the band\u2019s rich and distinctive sound. But it\u2019s the return of original ATTRITION vocalist Julia after twenty years that elevates this album to another realm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Black Maria Includes remixed\/remastered versions of the singles, &#8220;The Great Derailer&#8221; and &#8220;The Alibi&#8221; and a reworking of \u201cThe Voice of Truth\u201d. The album features special guest appearances from Alia Miroshichenko (Subterranea) Annie Hogan (Marc and the Mambas etc) on grant piano, Vancorvid and Marietta Fox on violins, Ian Arkley (My Silent Wake) on guitar, Steve Clarke (Futumche) on additional guitar\/bass, and Kris Force on cello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ATTRITION will be touring in 2024, commencing in the UK, then Europe, North and South America with autumn dates in Japan and more dates to be added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Black Maria is available on the following formats: CD, cassette, vinyl LP and on all major digital platforms worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nv-iframe-embed\"><iframe title=\"ATTRITION  - The Great Derailer\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/x05At-BuyhA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Attrition\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/artist\/5yAtVvdaWrTxW4GPC18643?utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI always get the feeling that Attrition are a band peeling back the veneer that covers the reality in which we exist to provide a glimpse of the ghostly world beneath\u201d\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0 Pulse Mag\/UK Legendary dark industrial pioneers, ATTRITION have unveiled their highly-anticipated new full-length album, The Black Maria.
