Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modest_MouseThe band had planned a string of shows on the West Coast of the United States in August of 2006, but a recent update on Epic Records' Modest Mouse site states that the shows will be postponed due to the band working on recording their new album, entitled We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank. The new album was recorded in Mississippi and is being produced by Dennis Herring, who also produced Good News for People Who Love Bad News.
As of June 26, 2006, the band has finished its recording in Oxford, MS at Sweet Tea Dennis Herring and has returned to Portland, OR to finish overdubs and mixing. Johnny Marr is a confirmed member of the band, co-writing songs for the new album with Isaac Brock. According to Brock himself, Marr is now "a full blown member of the band," and he will tour with the band in the near future. Brock appears excited about the album, describing it as a "nautical balalaika carnival romp".
The new album is due to be released on December 19, 2006
I can't wait! It will start to make up for cancelling that concert that I was going to go to...
