The Bravery Speaks On New Album

Band going organic...
The Bravery is set to release their next album, The Sun and the Moon, early next year. The album looks to be different from the mostly synthetic sound of their 2005 self-titled debut.
"We did it to death a little bit. We were a little sick of it. We went so synth-crazy that it got a little boring to us," frontman Sam Endicott tells Billboard.com. "It was more like, what does an acoustic piano sounds like or what are real organ sounds? That stuff was more exciting to us. There's still a lot of unusual sounds on the record, but they're created more by organic instruments."
Tracks on the new album will include "Shapes," "The Ocean," "Believe," "Bad Sun," "Rat in the Walls," and "Every Word Is A Knife In My Ear."
"It's like a weird mix between the [Rolling] Stones and the Ramones, but it doesn't really sound like either of them," Endicott says of the latter number. "At its heart, it's just a punk rock, f*ck you song."
