Some New Twang Album Details

There has been a bit of confusion about the Twang's upcoming third album. So far we know that it is called 10:20 for sure. There has been talk of a release date of 5th March floating around, but I think we would have heard something by now if that were the case. (Could be, though). We have very low resolution versions of the artwork (view here) and also we have a tracklist:

01. Last Laugh
02. Paradise
03. We're A Crowd
04. Whoa Man
05. Guapa
06. It Ain't You
07. Take This On
08. Tomorrow
09. Wait Forever
10. Strangers

Whether any of this information is true remains to be seen, but hopefully we'll have updates for you on here if and when we get them.

UPDATE: The album has been pushed back to an autumn release.

Some New Enemy Tracks

If you're anxious to hear some new Enemy stuff, someone recorded all five new songs that the band played at a recent gig at S7ven in Coventry, all of which are set for inclusion on their third album, due out around May-June time. These songs were first single Gimme The Sign (due out very soon - the video was also filmed at this gig), Bigger Cages Longer Chains, Saturday, 1-2-3-4 Ready To Go and This Is Real (the demo of which was released sometime last year). Have a listen below; the quality is not great but you can still get the general idea:

GIMME THE SIGN


BIGGER CAGES LONGER CHAINS


SATURDAY


1-2-3-4 READY TO GO


THIS IS REAL

Neon Trees Announce Album Release Date

Neon Trees have revealed that their upcoming second album, Picture Show, will be released on April 16th, one month later than we originally thought. The album follows their debut album Habits (released in 2010 in the US and 2011 in the UK) and will feature the single Everybody Talks.

The Enemy Post Cryptic Countdown

The Enemy have posted a sort-of countdown (well, they typed some times in) on their Facebook page, which currently has no known purpose. The countdown is due to finish on Saturday 11th at 14:00 GMT. My guess is that it's the release of the free single they promised at the end of January. Either that or they're announcing the album. Go onto their page on Saturday to find out - we may have it on here as well.

Morning Parade's debut album, which is self-titled, is now available to listen on Spotify one month before its release on March 5th. You do not need to have a premium account to listen to it (at least I don't and I'm listening to it as I type this).

The album features the singles Under The Stars and Us And Ourselves.
