GRAMMY® and BRIT-nominated, Diamond-selling British band Glass Animals released their highly anticipated fourth studio album, “I Love You So F***ing Much,” in 2024. Formed in Oxford in 2010, the four-piece is led by singer, songwriter, and producer Dave Bayley and features his childhood friends Joe Seaward (drums), Edmund Irwin-Singer (bass, keys), and Drew MacFarlane (guitar, keys).
Introduced by new singles “Creatures in Heaven” and “A Tear In Space (Airlock),” the birth of “I Love You So F***ing Much” began with an existential crisis that Bayley found himself on the precipice of last summer, following the band’s massive global success thanks to their critically acclaimed third studio album Dreamland (2020) and breakout single “Heat Waves.” Released during the pandemic, intense periods of isolation was a through-line to Dreamland, which elevated Glass Animals to mythical status.
“Heat Waves” broke records across the planet, becoming the first song by a British band since the Spice Girls’ “Wannabe” in 1995 to claim No. 1 for five consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and the first song to reach No. 1 with a single writer and producer (Dave Bayley) since Pharrell Williams’ “Happy.” The never-ending song,” Bayley jokes, having achieved GRAMMY and BRIT nominations, been crowned triple j’s Hottest 100 winner, claimed over 44 billion global streams to date and the title of the first British band to achieve No. 1 on the Spotify Global Chart.
Painting ten portraits of love in all its messy forms, “I Love You So F***ing Much” was solely written and produced by Bayley. From the existential to the intimate, from the first love we witness around us as children, to romance, hate and heartbreak, each song is dedicated to a different side of love. Bayley shares, “It took everything to make this record. It feels like a child to me. It was painful at times. I had to look at all the different types of love, and everything that comes with that, from happiness to the mundane, regret to hate and loss. All of these stories are set against a backdrop of the other biggest thing in the universe: The Universe. It’s arguing that human connection and the love between us is much bigger, more important, and more complex. Nothing else matters.”
To celebrate the album’s release, Glass Animals are currently on a massive world tour dubbed Human Music Group Sensations Glass Animals: TOUR OF EARTH. The tour will take the four-piece across North America, Europe, the UK, and Australia, where they’ll headline the biggest and most iconic venues of their career thus far.
