"Glasvegas have announced the name of their Flood-produced second album.

 

The follow-up to the group's self-titled debut from 2008 will be called EUPHORIC /// HEARTBREAK \\\, the Daily Record reports.

 

Guitarist Rab Allan said: "I heard the full album last night and it blew me away because I hadn't heard it for a few days.

 

"[Frontman] James [Allan] has been working away. James is getting a tracklisting together and that will be it finished. It is going to be called EUPHORIC /// HEARTBREAK \\\."

 

Of playing their first gig with Swedish drummer Jonna Löfgren, the replacement for Caroline McKay who left the group last year, Rab added: "We had new admirers. The guys in the audience liked Jonna a lot. The ones with their girlfriends couldn't admit it but everybody thinks she is gorgeous.

 

"It was quite surprising how calm and relaxed it was considering we haven't played in a year and a half."

 

The band premiered new songs 'Shine Like Stars', 'Euphoria' and 'Take My Hand' at the show, as well as 'The World Is Yours', which will be available as a free download from their website on January 16."

Quite liked their debut, but always thought they were capable of more. Hopefully this will show their full potential...

I hope it's good. Loved their debut.

Love their debut but what a horrible album title.

 

 

are the //// and \\\ really part of it?

It seems so. Ridiculous title, hopefully the quality of the music will make up for it.

Following the M.I.A. trend. Such a trendsetter, even if it is a $h!te trend :wub:

Maybe Glasvegas are going to go all Witch House on us with an album title like that. :P

At least her 'slashes' (?) were spelling out letters though!

Poor Glasvegas clearly didn't quite get that part. =[

Don't hold a lot of hope for this, their particular schtick wore very thin very quickly.

Quite looking forward to this, loved both the original album and the christmas one. If they can keep an equally high level with this, I'll be more than happy.

April 4th release date announced as well as the tracklisting:

 

01 'Pain Pain, Never Again'

02 'The World Is Yours'

03 'You'

04 'Shine Like Stars'

05 'Whatever Hurts You Through The Night'

06 'Stronger Than Dirt (Homosexuality pt.2)'

07 'Dream Dream Dreaming'

08 'I Feel Wrong (Homosexuality pt.1)'

09 'Euphoria, Take My Hand'

10 'Lots Sometimes'

11 'Change'

Well The World Is Yours sounds a bit like a mess to me, Disappointed.

I do like Glasvegas, loved their first album, really hope this one is as good...or better!!!

Agreed. Pretty boring.

I love Glasvegas and they are criminally underrated, their debut was very good :wub: :wub:

 

hopefully this new one will be good too ^_^

The World Is Yours is a grower...Love it now...Anthemic and the electronic elements are amazing
