And Also The Trees 'The Devil’s Door' PRE-ORDER

RELEASE DATE: 27/02/2026

‘The devil’s door’ by ‘And also the trees’, one of the original ‘Post-Punk’ bands, present a quiet storm of an album. At times filmic, poetic and intense with an undercurrent of dark psychedelia.

It completes a trilogy of works created by the current line-up: ‘The Bone Carver’, ‘Mother-of-pearl Moon’ and now ‘The devil’s door’. Here there are signature ‘And also the trees’ poetic lyrics, orchestral guitar and soundtrack influenced songs inspired by newsreel, oil paintings and folklore. But with this work we have the addition of some surprising instruments that skew the album towards a world where John Barry meets Bela Bartok.

And also the trees (AATT) formed during the original post-punk era in rural Worcestershire, an environment that has provided a constant inspiration to a group whose music has often explored the dark underbelly as well as the beauty of the British countryside.

They are renowned for their captivating live performances, a unique style of mandolin-like electric guitar, evocative lyrics and dark jazz rhythms - not to mention a creative independence fiercely preserved for over four decades.

AATT immediately caught the attention of Robert Smith of The Cure, who invited them to tour with his group on several occasions. Smith was also involved with their early recordings alongside his bandmate Lol Tolhurst, who produced their first records. This longterm friendship and mutual respect was further solidified when AATT were invited to perform at the Robert Smith curated 2018 Meltdown festival in London. This July AATT appear as The Cure’s special guests at the Nimes festival.

Founded by singer Simon Jones and his guitarist brother Justin, AATT have maintained a continuous presence on the post-punk, and alternative rock scenes worldwide. They have released sixteen studio albums.
