Roger Waters has confirmed the solo album he’s been recording with producer Nigel Godrich will be called Is This the Life We Really Want?.
Although he’s not yet provided a release date, he has said his first solo LP in over two decades will be ‘part magic carpet ride’, ‘part anguish’ and, least surprisingly of all, ‘part political rant’.
Waters tours North America later this year, when he’s promised ‘probably 75% will be old material and 25% will be new, but it will be all connected by a general theme’. It begins on May 26th in Kansas City.
