Falls Festival line-up leaks
Thanks to a webmaster slip-up (locking directories?) AND some cluey detective work the word is now out on who will be playing at this year's Falls Festival.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs lock in new album details
Add an exclamation mark. Confirm release date. Unveil cover and tracklisting. Merge with TVOTR.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs have revealed that their new album will be entitled It's Blitz. It is scheduled to be released sometime in Autumn.
Things we are looking forward to in 2009
World peace. An end to the world financial crisis. New Tucker Bs album.
According to this slightly incoherent blog post the Yeah Yeah Yeahs have almost finished up their new album and are expecting to release it sometime next year. Apparently it sounds "nothing like what they have done before". Bad glam rock revival? Fingers crossed.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs to release new EP
They have a bunch of 'left over' tracks that were recorded around the same time as their awesome full length debut, Fever To Tell waaay back in 2003 and, becuase they are very lovely, they are going to package them onto an EP and release them to the world.
