The Album of the Week is the debut album from The Last Dinner Party, Prelude to Ecstasy. One of the most captivating and electric new bands in the last year, the London quintet has already won the Rising Star Award at the BRIT Awards, and were chosen for BBC Radio One's Sound of 2024. Prelude to Ecstasy is a pendulum that swings between the extremes of human emotion. From the dark guitar pop on the passionate "Nothing Matters" to the haunting gothic new song "My Lady of Mercy". Fronted by expressive, live wire vocalist Abigail Morris, The Last Dinner party is a complete breath of fresh air on Prelude to Ecstasy, The Current's Album of the Week.
