(PR) Supersuckers kick off 2008 with announcing details of their new full-length album and adding more live dates. Singer, Eddie Spaghetti, will perform a special solo set backed by Jordan Shapiro on these dates and the full Supersuckers band will join them starting on January 24, 2008 in Hillside, IL.The band is currently finishing their new album (to be released later in Spring 2008 on their label, Mid-Fi Recordings) and will be previewing new songs as well as performing their classics. Currently untitled, the new album will, be the band's first full length recording since 2003's "Motherf^ckers Be Trippin." Since then, Supersuckers opted to release music through the EP format.
Eddie Spaghetti explains, "Yeah, I pretty much thought we were done making full length records. But the somewhat anemic response to our 'Paid' EP sort of got me to re-think the whole EP concept. So when we got into the studio this last time, we just threw everything we had at the tape machine and we saw that we had enough for a full length."
Eddie Spaghetti continues, "It's a little different that our previous records. I almost hate to say this, but it's a little bit more mature. An ugly word to use to describe what we do but I think it fits this time around. But it's an awesome record and I'm really proud of the way it's turned out. Now if I could just come up with a title for the damn thing..."
Titled or not, look out for this rock-n-roll juggernaut to be released in the spring of 2008 followed by extensive touring by the band well into 2009. Here are a few of the song titles to look forward to:
Something Good For You
Listen Up
When I Go, I'm Gone
She Is Leaving
What It Takes
I'm A F^cking Genius
Anything Else
Sunset On A Sunday
