Sparks — the legendary Mael Brothers duo — return with their 26th studio album, The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte, marking a reunion with Island Records for the first time since the 1970s. Striking their signature balance of madcap melody, intricate arrangements, and sharp social satire, the album finds Ron and Russell Mael as creatively vital as ever, drawing comparisons to the likes of David Bowie, Yellow Magic Orchestra, and ELO.
Widely praised as a critically acclaimed masterpiece, The Girl Is Crying In Her Latte channels the duo's trademark wit into a concentrated dose of cynical commentary on loneliness, fame, and modern disillusionment — all wrapped in the gloriously eccentric pop songcraft that has made Sparks icons. This EU-pressed black vinyl edition comes housed in a sleeve featuring a white border and is issued with a custom inner sleeve containing full lyrics and credits, making it a handsome addition to any serious record collection.
