Against Me! to Begin Work on New Album
Over the past couple of years, Against Me! has been touring the hell out of 2013’s super-important Transgender Dysphoria Blues and even took the time to document those shows through the 23 Live Sex Acts album. Now, it appears that the band is ready to took a breather from the road and get back into the studio.
On Twitter, Against Me!’s Laura Jane Grace said “We start tracking in the studio on October 8th. I’m looking forward to the change of pace, the other part of being in a band.”
When Riffyou.com spoke with Grace earlier this month, she touched on the importance of showcasing the band’s newest members Atom Willard (drums) and Inge Johansson (bass.)
“Going into touring for Transgender Dysphoria Blues, Against Me! was a really fresh band,” explained Grace. “We were really coming together as a band as we were touring that album – it felt really good and felt really fun. And, there was a desire to capture that [with 23 Live Sex Acts.] On top of that, there was this real desire to give some ownership of the songs – that they didn’t record originally – to Atom and Inge. Some of those older songs have changed so much since they were first created and the way they are played now, are nothing like how they used to be played. You just want to be able to share that.”
We start tracking in the studio on October 8th. I'm looking forward to the change of pace, the other part of being in a band.
