Click on the "GO BACKSTAGE" pass and join as a Backstage Member and you can get access to exclusive Fourth Floor Collapse content. As a rewards we are giving away our latest single from the Books with Broken Spines album ASHES, this special Radio Edit is not available anywhere else!! So what you waiting for.
In the reviews for the latest album, those writing people have said we sound like the following bewildering bunch of totally unrelated bands: Arcade Fire, The Decemberists, Augie March, Coldplay, U2, Radiohead, The Polyphonic Spree, Split Enz, Pink Floyd, Powderfinger, Starsailor, Turin Brakes, Badly Drawn Boy, Eskimo Joe, Delta Goodrem (just seeing if you were paying attention)...so take from that list what you will and listen to the tracks. They're just up there...
We think it's kinda layered, to remain interesting after lots of listens. You'll hear vocals and sometimes whole choirs, an army of guitars, bass, drums, flutterings of electronics, pianos, keyboards, sleigh bells, banjos and mandolins doing cameos, small children, talkback radio, bells that chime, bottlecaps and coins, foot stomps and handclaps.
THE NEW ALBUM
The Fourth Floor machine has been steadily ticking over during the past few months and we're ready to set album number four upon the world.
It's called Victoria. And it's on sale from 13 October, 2008 at the iTunes Music Store

It'll be available in all good stores.
It will have tracks in this order:

2. Best Disguise

9. Whole Lot Comes Alive
10. Get Up Slow
11. Without Wires
12. The Tigers Are Waiting
13. Someone Else to Blame
The first single is Drive On Regardless.
It makes an excellent gift at any time of year and will make your ears tingle, your eyes water, your heart beat, your knees weak, and your left arm go slightly wobbly.

The Bio
There's no place like a new home. Fourth Floor Collapse upped stumps in 2005 and shifted their base from Perth to Melbourne. Crossed the Plain to play to more people, more often and with a new record under tucked under their collective wings too. 'Books with Broken Spines' is the band's third album and was released in February 2006 to the usual hoo-ha. First single, Drink Till You Drown, got a flogging on the wireless and the second, Occupation, started its occupation of the airwaves in the final week of May.
So here we are. About 250 shows since Dan, Rhys and Michael first played together in Dan's garage as 14-year olds. Yes, it goes back to the schoolyard. Over the next few years they set about becoming the most awarded unsigned band in Australia (10 WAMIs, Australian Live Music Awards, assorted songwriting prizes...), released an EP and a trio of albums, a bunch of singles, gained a following around the country, had national tours, got good airplay from community to commercial radio, got a MySpace site...all that jazz.
