I really don't think this is happening. I get the feeling their working relationship may be somewhat strained after the whole Bumbershoot/US dates cancellation. I enjoy their work together, but I am more than ready to finally have the chance to see Mark on the road solo. In the meantime, I'm still looking forward to seeing Soulsavers again in December. I've been fortunate enough to see Mark at least 6 times in the past year... he's definitely second only to EV in my mind.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I think it's happening. That's what I thought too until I saw this. Here is a quote from a recent interview.
How did the collaboration with Isobel Campbell come to be?
ML: I was on tour with the Queens [of the Stone Age] and got something in the mail, a piece of music she had sent to my record company and asked if I wanted to sing on it. I didn’t realize there were actually words for this piece of music already, I didn’t read the entire letter or something, and I went ahead and made up my own singing part for it, which happened really quickly. I got back to her and she ended up liking what I did and put it on an EP. We met in person a couple of times when I was up in Glasgow, hung out and became friendly. One thing led to another. I just finished working on a third record.
Going to see Mark on Tuesday!! First time since 96 with ST on the Dust tour. Really looking forward to it. I wish he'd put Leviathan in the setlist, what a really awesome song. Blues Funeral is a perfect albeit very late follow up to Bubblegum. For me he is streets ahead of EV vocally as are a few others. ML has turned his hand to such a vast number of projects and somehow it never waters down the quality of his output. He picks his covers carefully too. One of my current favourites is Soulsavers cover of Some Misunderstanding. It's beyond stunning!

:shock: Enjoy Gary. I've seen lanegan about 12 times since 2004. Just amazing live.
I have to say I was completely gobsmacked by how good ML's voice still is live this week. Last time was Screaming Trees in 96' and he has just gotten better with age not so much like a fine wine, more a matured whisky...
The Blues Funeral songs are breathtaking in the flesh and his band is really tight.

Thanks for postring that video, I hadn't seen it before. Just saw a great comment on it: "Utterly brilliant. Mark's voice is an environment in itself; smoky, dimly lit, uncomfortable yet oh so inviting." Sums Mark up pretty well I think!

Blues Funeral is still my album of the year, though I think Bob Mould's new one may run it very close!
Glad to see that you made the Lanegan gig Gary, he was fantastic in Falmouth too. A good time was had by all. Looking forward to the Forum in December, and then to whatever project comes next!
The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits

Here's the whole article. Its long but a pretty good read. He mentions later the album will be out in 2010.

Enjoy the shows! Caught the Soulsavers twice here in the states and got to see Mark and Greg on the acoustic tour. All incredible shows.
