James Blake - Trying Times 2xLP (Indies Exclusive White Vinyl) (Due Out 13/03/2026)

Please note; this is a pre-order item due for release 13th March 2026.

Trying Times is a record about being in love whilst battling the limits of the self against a backdrop of global uncertainty. James Blake explores the tension between intimacy and isolation, the pressure to curate and perform even as everything, inside and out, feels fragile and precarious. Themes of reflection, both literally and metaphorically, run through the record’s visual presentation, as Blake holds a mirror to the contradictions of modern connection - how we see ourselves, how we’re seen by others, and what gets lost in between.
