Simian Mobile Disco To Release Live Album?

• 31st Jul 2009

Jas Shaw has revealed that Simian Mobile Disco may release a live album.

Talking to Clash about the concept, Shaw said:

“There’s quite a few tracks that we’ve put into the live show which I think are better live. Usually it’s something like an accident will happen one night… one night we put a synth over it and it had a chord affect on it and that sort of changed the way the track went. We thought “I like that” so we kept on doing it.”

“I guess it’s that slow evolution. Each night you get one or two things that you really like so you just leave enough space that there’s room for other accidents to happen. I’ve got a feeling that with some of them, because there are better live versions, that we’ll end up trying to record something live in order to capture it.”

The group’s forthcoming album, 'Temporary Pleasure' is set for release on the 17th August.
