In the latest interview superstar Anastacia has confirmed she's working on material, it will be definately out next year and it will packed with heavy guitars like her self acclaimed third album (Heavy Rotation was the style her label wanted her to go in, who she has now left).

This could cause some contriversy but how cool would it be if a new version of Calling All Angels appeared on the new album?
I want 100% new songs and I'm over it so I personally wouldn't xD

According to Ryan Murphy, he's had the chance to listen to 'parts of her new album' which is "amazing" according to him.

 

[update: not true - He was talking about someone else]

It’s been quiet around you for well over a year now. Why?

Because my career, how shall I put it, has to find itself. The music industry is under change, that’s party why I allowed myself to some time out. I wanted to find out where I want to go, which potential next steps make sense. The record companies nowadays want to downright possess you and so make up for their losses that the shift towards the internet has brought – and will keep on bringing. So I must make a choice as an artist: do I sell myself as a brand to a company. Or do I limit myself on a contract with a record distributor, have more freedom, but also take a bigger risk and have more expenses. I have checked all the possibilities and can see through now.

 

And which way have you decided for?

I won’t make that public yet. I can confirm though that I’m recording a new album next year. I’m in no hurry with it, because music is not running away from me. I love music, but I am very patient about these things.

 

You have already proven your patience before. You declined a lot of offers in the 90s because you wanted to be a country or hip-hop singer. Instead, you got by as a background singer, dancer and waitress, until the industry’s offers suited you after an appearance in an MTV talent-show.

That’s right. I wasn’t sure if the long wait would pay off. But I just couldn’t imagine changing myself into a country singer and feel good about it. Pop, rock, soul, those are the styles I feel comfortable in. I have to definitely believe in my lyrics and my music. I realised this again after I had forgotten about it for a long time.

 

What do you mean?

I tried to discover a new Anastacia a few years ago, and lost myself in the process.

 

How did that happen?

I suddenly found myself boring, I told myself: You still look exactly like the same Anastacia that made the breakthrough in 2000. I found that a weakness, stagnation, I changed my hair-style, my looks, tried to explore different ways musically, flirted with the “urban sound”. Yet I was untrue to myself, and later realised that I cannot run away from myself: I’m a city-child with a love for soul-rock. Never mind if it’s popular or not.

Thanks Josh. This clears up some things!

So she really hasn't signed up with a record company yet?

She said in the interview that she will make it public next year. :D She'll either sign with a major label or an independent one.

And what about your next career plans for this year?

Actually, now I am creating. When I get home I will continue writing. I'm very lively with it and I look forward to the dive into it again. It's great to experience that feeling again. When jumping into it headfirst, you cannot do anything else, except go ahead.

 

A release date?

If everything goes according to plan, I might have deadlines met before the end of the year. But it looks more like the beginning of the next. It depends on how much "magic gets going."

 

So it might be a good Christmas gift?

It is an essential item on the wish list for each of my fans. Right now I do not know yet.
