Jarvis Cocker - Further Complications

June 16th, 2009

In July, 2008, Cocker met Steve Albini in Chicago at the Pitchfork Music Festival.Together they tested some songs, liked the sound and agreed to record an album together. The album has a heavier sound than debut Jarvis, something that Cocker attributes to realising his band “could rock”, which led to him choosing to write with them. He told BBC 6 Music: “What I’ve tried to do with the new stuff, rather than me just sit there and wait for inspiration to come at some point – which takes ages – instead we’ve written stuff together. And it’s a bit louder.”
