Idlewild

It’s out of this ‘World’

Idlewild are set to release their new album ’Make Another World’ in February.

The album will be the follow up to 2005’s ’Warnings/Promises’. It was recorded in Edinburgh and recorded with producer Dave Eringa this summer.

According to a statement, the band almost jokingly called the album ’OutKast’ in reference to the album and film named ’Idlewild’ by the Atlanta duo.

The album is proceeded by the single ’If It Takes You Home’, which is released on December 4, as a limited edition 7” (only 750 copies) and as a free download during the band's forthcoming tour. It will be followed by another single in the new year.

The band UK tour starts on November 28 in Dundee, the dates are:

Dundee Fat Sams (November 28)
Sheffield The Plug (29)
Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms (30)
Bristol Fleece (December 1)
Manchester Academy 3 (2)
London Scala (4)
