Los Campesinos! put out not one, but two really great records last year ( Hold On Now Youngster... and We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed ), and apparently, the band is working on their third album. But wait, they don't count We Are Beautiful , for some reason. Either way, the band is working on a new album in Connecticut with producer John Goodmanson, and have taken to their website's blog to talk about the process. Here's what guitarist Tom Campesinos! had to say:
"We're about halfway into our over-thought, over-long, over-the-top sophomore album. This is probably going to be our 'Coke Album' what with the track-numbers piling up, egos a-flailing and a Gallagher-sized sense of misplaced belief in our own band. Sadly though (for you) there's not a sniff of white powder in sight, so it's probably gonna be more of a 'Diet Coke Album'."What about Cherry Coke? Or New Coke? The band has a pretty involved blog that they're updating a lot, including picks for American Idol. Go here to check it out. No word on when album number
