Twee pop dreamers Crayon Fields are busy prepping one of the year’s most anticipated Australian albums, the recently christened All The Pleasures Of The World. As they build up towards the record’s release in September, the band are releasing the title track as a vinyl single and hitting the road again.

The Fields’ 2006 debut Animal Bells was one of the year's most acclaimed releases, voted #2 in the Mess+Noise end of year critics poll (#4 in the general readers poll). The band have been working on their sophomore record since then.

Last year, the band released single ‘Mirror Ball’ as a limited edition vinyl single and it sold out almost immediately. The ‘All The Pleasures In The World’ single will be released with another track from the record, ‘Voice of Paradiese’. A video for ‘Voice Of Paradise’, directed by Crayon Fields frontman Geoff O'Connor, can be found here.

The band have just returned from a UK and European tour to launch the ‘All The Pleasures Of The World’ single at the Toff In Town on Saturday August 22. 

In addition to their single launch, Crayon Fields are also playing two special gigs in August supporting New Zealand legends The Bats. 

All The Pleasures Of The World will be released on Chapter Music in September 2009.
