Arcade Fire to begin writing new album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 5 November 2010
Arcade Fire’s Will Butler has said that the band are hoping to get to work on their next album very soon, if they can get over the problem of not being able to write and tour at the same time.
Butler told The Wall Street Journal: “We’ll definitely be touring next Spring – the weather is be nicer for driving around then than in the winter. We’re going to experiment this winter. We’re not quite sure what we’re doing in February, but January and March we’ll probably be off. We’ve never successfully written or done anything really in a middle of a touring cycle, [but this time we’ll try]”.
He continued: “We’re going to see if we can maybe get into a different rhythm besides the tour, tour, tour, rest, rest, rest, tour, tour, tour, rest, rest, rest. We’re going to see if we can intertwine them a little bit”.
