Calexico Announce New Album
Algiers Out Sept. 11
Jun 05, 2012 Calexico
Arizona-based alt-country group Calexico have announced that they will release their latest full-length album Algiers on Sept. 11. The band’s first proper studio effort since 2008’s Carried to Dust, the new record will be distributed by Anti- in the U.S. and City Slang in Europe.
The group’s core duo Joey Burns and John Convertino relocated to New Orleans with co-producer Craig Schumacher for the bulk of the recording sessions, living and working in a converted church in the outskirts of a neighborhood for which the record is named. ”The place is strong and bold, soulful to the core, but surrounded by a sea of darkness,” Burns explains in a press release. “There’s something creepy and old on the edge of town and written throughout the town’s histories. Those kinds of aesthetics help with the writing.”
