Yes, I read an interview with the Chemical Brothers in Mixmag magazine not too long ago that mentioned them working with her on her new record, which is apparently still in the works. I've read a bit more info elsewhere but I can't remember where... For the most part the information was pretty vague so no release date or specifics were given. I have heard the song she did with The Chemicals for their latest record (it's not out yet, only a couple more weeks) "The State We're In" is the title of the track. It really is a beautiful song, even if electronic music isn't everyone's cup of tea. Her voice just carries the song imo, well worth anyone checking out.

Well, this record might be worth checking out, by the sound of that. I wasn't totally enarmoured of her last one, 'Central Reservation'. A good record, of course, but a bit 'blah' in places.

David Hasselhoff

Actually, after seeing Garbage open for another band*ahem*, I got their new release, and I was impressed....and I had never really owned a Beatles CD until last week...

They have a new record "out" (completed, but not exactly available).. actually, I think the story goes: the record company thought it unlistenable, suggesting changes. The band thought otherwise. The label has since severed ties to the band.. and vise-versa.

The funny thing is, the local rock critics for the two major newspapers have called it the best of their career.. go figure!

ps: go PJ fans GO!!! (I'm anxiously awaiting some video compilations someone is making for me, including 'rid of me' solo in Amsterdam, as well as some live video shot at concerts in Germany, England and France spanning the last 3 tours. yum!)
