A
digital single will be released on December 14th.
The
album will be released digitally on December 21th with special
deluxe options [Nick says he wants the vinyl to be super special].
The
digital version of All you Need Is Now has 9 tracks but Nick
assures that a few tracks are over five minutes.
Nick
assures that the physical release will have at least a couple
more tracks.
They
haven't decided the front cover, they have 3/4 contenders
out of the 20 images made by British artist Clunie Reid for
the album artwork and packaging. British fashion magazine
Pop’s creative team will provide graphics and art direction
for the project.
Nick
took some pics and Clunie has fallen in love with them, she
changed them and used for the artowrk.
Nick
would like to play the album in its entirety if they get the
opportunity "at some smaller show for those ready enough
to come and listen to it".
Nick
discusses some songs:
'The
Man Who Stole The Leopard' is very electronic, along the
lines of The Chauffeur. It's a story of obsession, and it's based
on the film The Collector which is part of the
inspiration. Nick wrote a fake news article for the end of the song
and a British journalist actually reads it.
'Safe'
has lyrics written by John and Nick, with Ana Matronic's spoken
rap is one of Nick's personal favourites, It has a Garage
feeling.
'Before
The Rain' is one of "Simon's most powerful lyrics
in a while" this one is along the lines of The Chauffeur as
well.
'Blame
the Machine' was a possible album title, the song is the
second song on the album and is a current favourite of Nick. It's
an up-tempo groovy one based on a news story.
'Being
Followed' is another personal favourite of Nick, it's a
song about the paranoia of the google era. "Everywhere you
go everyone has got a telephone with a camera on it... nothing much
is private anymore..."says
Nick.
