Spector Planning New Album,
Share Video For “Bad Boyfriend”
London based indie rockers Spector, recently confirmed plans to release the much-anticipated follow-up to their 2012 debut Enjoy It While It Lasts.
Frontman Fred Macpherson recently told NME “I don’t think we ever necessarily thought there would be a second album,” but went on to say, “‘All The Sad Young Men’ is one of the tracks that took us the longest to get right because of how much it meant to us. I’m pretty sure it’s the best song we’ve written, and its honesty plays a big part in that.”
Spector frontman Fred Macpherson and blogger DJ Deep take time from their busy 2012 Coachella schedule to pose for a photograph.
The UK band is best known for their Reflection Day anthem “Never Fade Away.” Last week the quartet shared a video for their latest single “Bad Boyfriend.” In the likely event Spector isn’t on your new music radar… this now makes three singles released since last December, all of which are supposed to be included of the forthcoming album. There’s no date at this time for the album’s release, but you can rest assured, I’ll keep you posted.
Enjoy the videos for all three new singles from Spector below:
“Bad Boyfriend”
“All The Sad Young Men”
“Don’t Make Me Try”
