According to Uncut magazine, those previously reported rumours that The Jesus And Mary Chain are planning to record new material are true. The band reunited for an appearance at US festival Coachella earlier this year, of course, and it was there that band members were overheard discussing the possibility of getting back together on a more permanent basis.
No recording schedule has been mentioned, but Uncut say that the new line-up of founders William Reid and James Reid, plus former Lush bassist Phil King and former Ride drummer Loz Colbert, are to head into the studio to record new tracks for the band's first album since 'Munki' was released back in 1998.
