With the release of their blinding new album ‘Magic Hour’ this coming Monday May 28th, Scissor Sisters have confirmed an October UK and Ireland headline tour. Meanwhile, Queens of the Stoneage front man Josh Homme has delved to the very core of ‘Magic Hour’ to bring you his own hilarious track-by-track guide.
In addition to Josh's comments, Scissor Sisters vocalist Jake Shears says: “It’s a sweet joyful mélange of beat-driven future-pop. It style-hops all over the place unabashedly.”
The album was recorded over the past year in New York and London, with the single co-produced with Calvin Harris. The band’s relationship with Calvin started when Jake was working with him on material for Kylie Minogue’s 'Aphrodite' album: “When we wrote ‘Horses’, I immediately knew that he'd help knock it out of the park,” says Jake.
The album release follows the Calvin Harris-produced single ‘Only The Horses’, which hit the charts last week following Scissor Sisters fantastic live performance on The Voice and two intimate sold out shows at Shepherd’s Bush Empire.
