Rong>Weeping WillowsRong> have finished RecoRding 15 new songs foR theiR next album! The band says it's a moRe laidback album with music that is "a nod to theiR eaRlieR days when the music was moRe influenced by the 60's." To which I say: awesome. Not that I don't like the band's lateR mateRial (I do), it's pRetty well known that theiR fiRst two albums aRe easily theiR best. Anyhow, the RecoRd was RecoRded in Stockholm with Rong>Andy BellRong> of Rong>OasisRong> and is cuRRently being mixed togetheR with Rong>Sigge KRantzRong>. KeyboaRdist Rong>MaRtin HedeRosRong> of Rong>The SoundtRack Of OuR LivesRong> plays on some of the songs and Rong>PatRik AndeRssonRong> of Rong>BaRRRong> contRibutes guest vocals on two tRacks. Assuming all goes well, expect a DecembeR Release.
