2008 was a good year for The Raveonettes, they released a really good full-length & a 4 of EPs towards the end of the year. But seems that all that wasn’t enough for Sune. Yesterday afternoon he sent out an email stating that him & Sharin want to create the best album album to date. They will embark on a mini-tour this January 15 & right after its over they will turn their writing mode on. They are hiring a genius producer to make this happen, they want it to be a proper studio album & release it by September!

Sune:

Had a great creative talk with Sharin today and we’re so ready to make the best album to date! It’ll be released in September and we wanna do a proper studio album with a genius producer. There’s only so much you can do in your living room and let’s face it, whenever you pull out one of your favorite albums, it’ll stand the test of time because of a timeless sound, excellent production and songwriting. Now’s the right time for us to step it up…

Before we go into songwriting mode, we’ll hit the road on the 15th of January for an intense tour. We’re bringing a 4 piece band on the road so it should sound massive! There’re still a few tix left so get them now!

This will be the last we’ll tour for a while because we wanna spend all our time on the next album. We’re excited about the future.
