New songs, new album
The next batch of songs will be recorded for the new album during may, its been fun whittling the material from around 20 new tracks to just ten. The interesting thing is how some tracks just turn up, we have a new as yet unnamed track that just came , fully formed last monday and is a def. for the new record. The older tracks wont be scrapped though, we’re going to leave them for later, hopefully, at least i hope, we’ll do some more recording soon after this albums done and have another ready quite quickly. As the Dial who loves the recording process more than anything else i could happily spend everyday in the studio so the prospect of having lots of tracks that are just begging to be recorded is great.
I think this album will be more direct and simpler in terms of sounds than the last, really its ten tracks of pretty straightforward pop stuff, albeit with our trademark sounds all over it…but some departures from the last one, its less country IMHO, and theres a shortness to the tracks which works well…poptastic in fact…and we are covering new ground, doing stuff we’ve never done before, like more blues based songs….should be fun.
