It Bites: Following on from the highly-acclaimed "Tall Ships", It Bites return with their first concept album in a career that spans 25 years.

Inspired by the discovery of an old family photograph, "Map of the Past" is a highly personal journey that explores love, passion, jealousy, anger, remorse and loss through the eyes of a previous generation against the backdrop of Britain as it enters a new century and one of the most defining periods of its history.

Written by John Mitchell and John Beck over the course of 2011, it was recorded at Outhouse Studios in Reading and features Bob Dalton on drums and Lee Pomeroy on bass.
