Frank Turner has posted an update on his forthcoming album, now expected in the summer. He said this:
Week two in the studio dawns with much to be satisfied with. We made much quicker progress in the first week than we were expecting in the end, finishing up all drums, bass, piano and electric guitars, as well as nailing the atheist gospel choir thing. This morning my good friend Franz Nicolay came in to play accordion, and we've started in on the vocals now, which is always the most nerve-wracking part of the process for me, personally. But we're nearly 3 songs down already, so we're making good time.We're working on 15 songs; I doubt that all of them will make the album proper (though it's tempting). Everything sounds really strong right now.
Last year, Frank Turner ended 2010 with a new EP titled Rock + Roll. He released his previous full length, Poetry of the Deed, in 2009.
