KIDS IN GLASS HOUSES announce "Dirt" album tracklist

Official Press Release:

KIDS IN GLASS HOUSES have confirmed the tracklisting for their forthcoming album DIRT, which was recorded in Texas at Sonic Ranch Studios with Jason Perry (The Blackout, ‘A’) mid 2009. Parts were also recorded on the road during the New Found Glory tour (who appear on Maybe Tomorrow), and at Jason’s studio in Essex where the band met Frankie Sandford (The Saturdays) by chance, and invited her to appear on the track ‘Undercover Lover’.

"The album doesn't pander to any fleeting trends record we could have made. There are a few curveballs. It’s a bit rawer than our first. It’s quite a bit more expansive and the arrangements are more interesting. The most noticeable thing will be the inclusion and experimentation with electro elements, brass and strings. We've never wanted to cut ourselves off from playing with these things and making them part of our music. There's some grandiose bits, some fun bits and some textured pretty bits that step away from the two guitars, bass, drums and vocals approach. It was a lot of fun. We all just wanna be Prince, really," he laughs.

“The vibe this time is alot less processed," Iain Mahanty (guitars) continues. A lot of music around now sounds like it’s coming off a conveyor belt. We wanted to step away from that, stick our necks out and go Hang on, we’re a rock band. Let’s have it!”

The tracklisting for the album (which will be available digitally and on CD) breaks down as follows:

1. Artbreaker I
2. The Best Is Yet To Come
3. Sunshine
4. Matters At All
5. Youngblood
6. Lilli Rose
7. Giving Up
8. For Better Or Hearse
9. Undercover Lover (featuring: Frankie Sandford)
10. Maybe Tomorrow (special guests: New Found Glory)
11. The Morning Afterlife
12. Hunt The Haunted
13. Artbreaker II

A special edition of the album will be made available digitally also and will have the following additional tracks:

14. Believer
15. Reputation
16. When The World Comes Down
