Everyone's favorite alt country fuck ups The Broken Family Band have revealed their new album will be called Balls. How charming. Speaking to the Cambridge Evening News, frontman Steve Adams said: "It's all done and we are just mixing it. We've gone a bit more rock this time." Balls will be bouncing into the shops in January 2006 and is likely to be released via Track And Field. |
Adams reckons the new album is more upbeat:
"'Welcome Home Loser' was a bit miserable, it was about getting rid of a lot of dark stuff. There will always be an element of that in our music but we have lightened up a bit for this one."
Adams' solo album Problems is due for release in November. He says he's dropped the fake American accent and swapped it for a fake English one instead.
In related news, The Broken Family Band play Cambridge Junction on Thursday September 22nd. They headline a showcase of European bands which include Dutch indie types Skip The Rush, their compatriots Alazarin, Swedes Niccokick, and "Luxembourg's premier experimental group" Mousse 20. It only costs a fiver to get in. Bargain.
Oh and the headline is a Team America reference by the way. So now you know.
