As previously reported, England's legendary Buzzcocks have signed with Merge Records to release a self-titled album (their 7th studio release) on March 18, 2003. The band recently posted the track listing for the disc on their website along with the songwriting credits. You can click below to see them. Of particulart interest is an appearance by original Buzzcock Howard Devoto on two tracks. Devoto founded the band in 1975 but exited in `77 after their debut EP "Spiral Scratch" was released. He originally handelled lead vocals, which were later picked up by Pete Shelly (although Devoto-fronted versions of the band's early material can be heard on the "Time's Up" release). No other information is available on further collaborations between Devoto and the band.
