The Horrible Crowes, side project of The Gaslight Anthem‘s Brian Fallon and longtime Gaslight guitar tech Ian Perkins, are currently in the studio, working on their upcoming album. Today, the band released studio update 5 on their blog:
“Today we moved into a new studio to complete the final stages of the record. We had Adele Jensen come in to play trumpet, and it sounds amazing! Like Miles, and Coltrane…There’s some big stuff coming this week, we have strings, Benny’s coming to play a HUGE tympani drum, it’s out of control. It’s coming together in an amazing way, and you’re going to be very excited. We’re not releasing any previews, or sample tracks or anything prior to the first official single. The reason is that this CANNOT be heard in any other than it’s proper form. We’d be doing a great injustice to release a demo version or anything less than the final product for you to hear. It’s been a long wait for all of us, but it’s going to be so very, very worth it when you see the artwork with the actual record or cd and play it for the first time. Thank you for your patience and we’re very grateful for everyone’s interest in what we’re doing here, we’re so proud of it and we hope you will enjoy it. We sure have had a blast making it so far and we can’t wait to put the final touches on it.”
Currently there’s no word on a release date, nor which label will be releasing it…but we’ll keep you posted as always. The Gaslight Anthem most recently released American Slang last year on SideOneDummy.
