Micky Bradley has been talking about the new Undertones album, which is due this autumn or maybe earlier if sufficient digit-extracting is done.
“We’ve been in Blast Furnace recording studios for the past two months, only coming out for some sunlight, to fight off our vitamin D deficiency,” Bradley says. ”Actually, that’s a bare faced lie. We have been working on the record though, and, if I say so myself, it’s really good. 13 songs, short and sweet, all we need now is a title and artwork – although in my mind, it’s done and dusted. That’s the thing with making records. You listen to them so many times that you sometimes forget it’ll have a new lease of life when it’s actually released. Then you get the opinions from fans, reviewers, family, pets, solicitors and children in the street who throw stones at you. We also have a couple of live shows coming up, the first we’ve done since the Nerve Centre at Christmas. It’s almost like coming out of hibernation, so we’ll have to have a good stretch and a good practice sometime this week. We’re getting fitted for the glittery suits on Monday as well, so I’ll need to wash under my armpits.”
We’re counting the days chaps!
