Where is your Young God now?

The Young Gods are on the cusp of releasing a whole new album - it's Super-Ready, and also, of course, super and ready for pre-order. In order to alert the world to the existence of the record, they're going to be playing Dingwalls, in London, on Tuesday 15th May. This, apparently, is to be the only UK show (or so says the voice of God, anyway) and so, consequently, could be the last ever UK show.

The violent Gods

It's never too soon to start frothing excitedly about a new album from The Young Gods, so it's worth sticking May 7th into some sort of calendar. That's when the band are releasing Super Ready/Fragmente. It's got a gun on the cover, and viol, explains Franz Treichler:

“In Switzerland, recent statistics have shown that we can account for the exact number of dogs whereas no one has any idea – even approximately – of the amount of weapons. The Young Gods exist to suggest and share emotions and impressions without conveying a specific message. The three of us believe in the huge suggestive power of music. The violent aspect of the album is our own way of reacting to the current socio-political context.”

Sadly, Franz doesn't reveal how many dogs there are in Switzerland.
