The Destruction of Small Ideas

Critically acclaimed third album from 65 Days of Static.

2006 was an amazing year for 65daysofstatic. After releasing their second album 'One Time For All Time' late in 2005, the Sheffield quartet set about touring relentlessly. They re-visited many of the UK cities they had played in before, and also ventured abroad for the first time, taking in nine countries along the way. One of those was Japan , where they played Summer Sonic Festival in August in front of 10,000 people, followed by a return in the autumn for some headline shows. In December they went into the studio and recorded their best album yet - 'The Destruction Of Small Ideas', which was released on April 30th and sold out the first 10,000 copies within a week. Their first US tour was in July with Fear Before The March Of Flames, then they returned to play the Download Festival in San Francisco in October. The band caught the attention of Robert Smith, who invited them to tour the USA with The Cure in spring 2008.
