以下消息來自Spiritualized官方網站:
SPIRITUALIZED are set to release their much anticipated new lp, titled
LET IT COME DOWN, on September 10th on Spaceman Records. It is everything
that one would hope for and expect of the successor to their last much
lauded studio lp, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE ARE FLOATING IN SPACE.
LET IT COME DOWN will be proceeded by a single, STOP YOUR CRYING, taken
from the lp and scheduled for release on August 27th.
The 11 song lp was entirely written and arranged by Jason Pierce and
utilises some 100 musicians, including gospel and choral singers throughout
the recordings. It was recorded initially at Air studios before moving to
the renowned Abbey Road Studio Two where all the orchestral and choral
recordings were recorded in live sessions, produced by J Spaceman and
John Coxon.
Recordings began at the end of 1999 and were completed at Abbey Road at
the end the summer 2000. Once recording commenced, a new conglomeration
of musicians was brought in who now comprise the present line-up of
SPIRITUALIZED.
Alongside Jason are keyboardist Thighpaulsandra and sax player Ray Dickaty
who have been part of the group since the Royal Albert Hall show in October
1997. Sometime member and co-producer John Coxon also returns to the band
playing guitar and keyboards. They are now joined by Doggen (guitar), Martin
Shellard (bass), Kevin Bales (drums) and Tom Edwards (percusssion). A further
five brass players will complete a new 13 piece band that will be touring
the UK in the wake of the lp release.
LET IT COME DOWN is the fourth studio lp from SPIRITUALIZED, following
LAZER GUIDED MELODIES (1992), PURE PHASE (1995) and LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...
(1997).
It was LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... that was the breakthrough lp, topping most
writers' and magazine end of year polls by the end of 1997 and becoming
SPIRITUALIZED's first UK Gold record. Following its release, SPIRITUALIZED
toured extensively including playing memorable shows at the Royal Albert
Hall (October 1997), The CN Tower in Toronto (the official highest show on
earth) and the World Trade Centre in New York (both in 1998). The Royal
Albert Hall show was released as a double live cd/vinyl in October 1998.
LET IT COME DOWN is the most song based lp yet from SPIRITUALIZED and
represents a remarkable achievement by Jason Pierce in both writing and
arranging an lp on such a vast scale. It represents more than a two year
undertaking, from writing and notating the original songs, the recording
process through to completion of the mixes in May 2001.
The full track listing is as follows:-
ON FIRE
OUT OF SIGHT
DON'T JUST DO SOMETHING
THE TWELVE STEPS
THE STRAIGHT AND THE NARROW
DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN
I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU
STOP YOUR CRYING
ANYTHING MORE
WON'T GET TO HEAVEN (THE STATE I'M IN)
LORD CAN YOU HEAR ME
The first play of STOP YOUR CRYING will be on the Steve Lamacq show on
Radio 1 on the 3rd July, after which STOP YOUR CRYING will be exclusively
streamed from http://www.spiritualized.com
