New Young Knives
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 24 January 2011
Young Knives’ third (or fourth, or fifth, depending what you count) album, ‘Ornaments From The Silver Arcade’, will hit stores on 4 Apr, it has been announced. The new record will come out via PIAS and Gadzöök.
According to the press release, for this album, produced in LA by Nick Launay (Talking Heads, Grinderman, Yeah Yeah Yeahs), “instruments were swapped in rehearsals; new instruments were introduced and songs were approached from multiple directions … the band filtered into the recordings their love of dance music in all its myriad forms and pushed the experimental button at the right times with nods to the motorik influences of krautrock”.
If you’re unable to imagine what that might sound like you’ll have to wait for the April release or the UK tour set to accompany it.
