Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album
Order the bands fourth & final album. Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download.

We are doing a limited run on CD only to complete our 4-album catalogue. There'll be no more available after this short run. Comes in a beautiful 6-panel, high quality DigiPack designed by Jesse at Black Rogue Design, Co. Donegal.

2023 sees the release of the fourth and final album from The Walls. 'Stray Sparks' is a collection of rarities, gems and previously unreleased tracks that span the years from the band's first recordings in 1997 to the 'Stop the Lights' sessions in 2010. It bookends a catalogue of just four critically-acclaimed albums and it's the map that traces the journey and development of the band's sound - through a diversity in styles and experimentation all weaved together with their unique knack for melody.

Includes unlimited streaming of STRAY SPARKS via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
