NewsMetric begin work on new albumMetric have begun work on their fourth album, the follow-up to 2005's 'Live It Out'. The band are currently working on pre-production of the record at Giant Studios in Toronto, having written the majority of the material late last year in Bear Creek Studios, near Seattle. And singer Emily Haines says the Seattle studio had a major impact on the songs saying: "Being isolated in the woods at Bear Creek helped to inspire the vibe for these first songs that we wrote together. We went for a warm sound, using a lot of vintage instruments." The band will continue to write the album until June, when they will officially start recording with a view to completing the album in October. Meanwhile, Haines is set to release a solo EP in July entitled 'What Is Free To A Good Home?' which contains five songs recorded during the making of her album 'The Knives Don't Have Your Back'. Additionally, the band have confirmed that their album 'Grow Up And Blow Away' will be officially released on June 26. The album was recorded in 1999 but never released. The album tracklisting is as follows: 'Grow Up' 'Hardwire' 'Rock Me Now' 'The Twist' 'On The Sly' 'Soft Rock Star' 'Raw Sugar' 'White Gold' 'London Half Life' 'Soft Rock Star' (Jimmy vs Joe Mix) Jesus And Mary Chain unveil fall dates The Jesus And Mary Chain have announced a short stint on the road in the US, kicking off October 20 in Las Vegas. The band have also confirmed they are heading back to the studio for the first time in almost ten years to work on new material. The band broke up in 1999 but reunited earlier this year for a select number of shows, debuting at Coachella in May. The band performed a memorable greatest-hits set, and were joined by actress Scarlett Johansson for vocals on 'Just Like Honey'. They will be joined on all dates by Evan Dando, who will perform solo acoustically, and on the LA and San Francisco dates by Soulsavers, featuring Mark Lanegan. |
