Soulsavers are Broken
If this is Soulsavers’ version of broken, I want to see what the U.K. electro duo can come up with when everything is working…
On August 18th, Rich Machin and Ian Glover will release their third full-length effort with Broken. And as been the case throughout Soulsaver’s existence, the duo have tapped to some pretty big names to help out. Mark Lanegan (Queens of the Stone Age, Screaming Trees), who returns after fronting eight tracks on the collective’s sophomore release, It’s Not How Far You Fall, It’s How Hard You Land, will front 10 tracks, including duets with Spiritualized’s Jason Pierce, Faith No More’s Mike Patton, Gibby Haynes of the Butthole Surfers. Also appearing on the album are Richard Hawley, Australian newcomer Red Ghost, and tudio bassist Martyn LeNoble (Porno for Pyros, Jane’s Addiction).
There’s nothing better than bringing in great people who inspire, to keep you on top of your game, and to keep things fresh and never boring,” says Machin. “That’s the nature of what we’ve set up here.”
The release will be headed by the release of “Sunrise” with b-side “You Will Miss Me When I Burn”. The former is Will Oldham’s take on the Lanegan-penned track, while the latter features Lanegan covering Oldham.
Looking forward to seeing how they switch things up from their last release, which was excellent.
