2009 Albums of the Year Anticipation/Tracking

Mew

New Album Info:

http://www.mewx.info/wp/

Quote:We have information on No More Stories. Yes, that is the official title of Mew’s fifth album - those who have heard it, call it a MASTERPIECE (we knew that already). The album will be released on August 19th 2009 in Finland (and most likely this is the same date for all of Scandinavia) - it will also be digitally available two days prior (August 17th). But fear not, Mew will release an EP before that. The extended play will be out on July 1st - just before the summer festivals.

Remember, you heard it here first - we’ll be back shortly to bring you more extensive information about the album.

Quote:The first single from No More Stories is called Repeater Beater and it premieres in Finland on May 29th at YleX-radio channel at 9:10am and it plays exclusively during that whole weekend. This is supposedly the date in other Nordic countries as well. You may buy the single digitally on June 1st.

In addition to Repeater Beater, the EP (released on July 1st) contains one new song from the album, two live-performances and a b-side. The album is produced by Rich Costey who has previously worked with Muse, Glasvegas and Franz Ferdinand among others. Plus - as we know - he is the man behind Mew’s Frengers (2003) as well.

leaked? it's been for sale at their shows since the end of April. I've had it for 2 weeks myself.

apparently, the songs on "Me and You" are very similar to their Generica versions. I wouldn't know as I didn't buy any of that. it's alright, still that acoustic/folk rock type stuff from April and Generica as I said. THat VAST/Bang Band Sixx EP is more like earlier VAST.

Yeah, I'd heard that he took the "best" from Generica and reworked them, but I wasn't sure if that was correct info. or just rumor. Either way, I bought a few Generica CDs and didn't care for them at all, so I just stopped buying them.

I've heard that his Bang Band Sixx album is closer to his earlier stuff, but is it good? I admit to losing faith in this guy's abilities at this point.

I'm not sure how reworked those versions are. A few people posted on the VAST board that there were barely any differences. As I said, I wouldn't know personally. I got that album and the EP for $10 each at the show so I was happy with that. They were much better than when I saw them in 2007 and Jon appears to be taking care of himself better.

If you want a sample of the EP, you can listen to 30 second clips of each song on Amazon MP3...I know it's not much, but it may give you a little idea.
