Where this album fits

Career context
By the time 'Heart of Nowhere' was released in 2013, Noah and the Whale had already established themselves within the indie rock scene with their earlier albums, particularly following the success of 'Last Night on Earth' in 2011. This album marked a transitional phase for the band as they sought to explore more mature themes and a deeper emotional resonance in their music, moving away from their earlier, more upbeat sound.
