Elbow‘s new album, due out in the March of 2014, is to be entitled ‘Carry Her, Carry Me‘.
Frontman Guy Garvey made the revelation during an interview with Q Magazine, when he also discussed the impact his six week stay in New York had on the LP’s lyrical content.
“Walking around New York I feel like my antennae are up,” he said. “My ears are open for snatches of beautiful conversation. In Manhattan, it just feels like all the time, any second, somebody’s going to utter that thing that changes the world.”
The band’s sixth album is supported with a large UK arena tour in April 2014, and was partly recorded at Peter Gabriel‘s Real World Studios. “It’s the least aptly-named studio in the world,” Garvey continued on the studio.
“Real World? Is it fuck. But when you’re there, you get six months work done in two weeks. To go and live and breathe your record without the distractions of the rest of life, you make creative decisions you would not have made at home.”
