The Most Anticipated Albums of 2006: Taking Back Sunday
Alternative Press - Rob Ortenzi on 1/31/06 @ 7:40 PM - altpress.com
Taking Back Sunday have only been in Los Angeles for two months recording the follow-up to their gold-selling sophomore album,
Where You Want To Be. But with production expected to run into the last days of December, frontman Adam Lazzara is missing the East Coast--
bad. "It's way different out here, and I'm ready to go back to New York," he says. However, missing home is only fueling the band's fire--and their arsenal of songs. TBS are set to record around 14 tracks with producer Eric Valentine (Queens Of The Stone Age, Good Charlotte) at Barefoot Studios in Hollywood; Lazzara says 11 of those cuts will make it onto TBS' third album,
Louder Now. Tentative song titles include "My Blue Heaven," "20/20 Surgery" and "Sleep." "We just tried to write a rock record, but focused more on what we wanted," Lazzara explains. "We were a little more selfish in things." Though he says ballads will be taking a back seat to full-on rockers, Lazzara is crossing all his proper appendages that Cyndi Lauper can lend her voice to a track (pick up Lauper's
The Body Acoustic and see if you can recognize the male voice on "Money Changes Everything.") "I would just hope everyone knows that I haven't worked this hard on anything, ever," insists Lazzara. "We just hope to make [the fans] proud." Who's got a Kleenex?
