Two Door Cinema Club To Record New Material After Festival Season

Irish band Two Door Cinema Club have revealed that they will be begin work on their second album later this year.

Singer Alex Trimble said: "We've just moved in to a house - we're setting up a studio in there, so I guess after festival season we'll have a little more time off and just keep recording and hopefully make another record, or maybe two, and just see what happens."

The indie trio – also including guitarist Sam Halliday and bassist Kevin Baird – are set to play at festivals on both sides of the Atlantic this year including Coachella in California, but they claim appearing at Glastonbury in the UK has been their favourite experience so far as they have fond memories of meeting their musical heroes there.

Alex added to Spinner.com: "It is absolutely crazy. I mean, last year we played the 'other stage' at Glastonbury which is sort of like the second stage dine-in.

"I mean, you're playing with artists that you grew up with and you're playing with the bands that inspired you and the people that made you want to write music and stuff.

"It's weird when you're hanging backstage and one of those people walks past you. You’re in such close proximity with all these people you've known but not met all your life.”

Two Door Cinema Club have been confirmed to play at this year's Coachella festival, Isle of Wight festival and Radio One's Big Weekend.

The Stone Roses Reunion Denied by Bassist

Reports in The Sun this morning (April 7th) suggested that the band could be set to reform after patching up their differences. Sadly for us, Mani has angrily denied any potential reformation from The Stone Roses, and blasted tabloid intrusion into his life!

"Two old friends meeting up after 15 years to pay their respects to my mother does not constitute the reformation of The Stone Roses. Please fuck off and leave it alone. It isn't true and isn't happening." Mani said.

A very much loved group, The Stone Roses have been dogged by rumours of reformation since the moment they split back in 1996. More than a decade on, the legendary Manchester group have refused to get back together.

Focussed on their own careers, Ian Brown and Mani have continued to work in the music industry. John Squire meanwhile, is now a full time artist and spent the bulk of 2010 hosting exhibitions around the globe.

So that's that. The statement is unequivocal, and with Mani set to resume bass duties in Primal Scream for their 'Screamadelica' tour there is no sign that The Stone Roses are set to reform any time soon.

Bryan Ferry Admitted To Hospital After Falling 'Seriously ill'

Bryan Ferry has been admitted to hospital after the Roxy Music singer was reported to have fallen "seriously ill". The 65-year-old was forced to cancel an appearance at an Olympic 2012 event on 5 April after complaining of suffering ill-health for some time. He is now understood to be undergoing hospital tests.

The Daily Mail reports that a spokesperson for Ferry denied that the singer had suffered a heart attack but confirmed that he was having a medical examination.

The spokesman said: "Bryan has been feeling rough for some time and he felt even worse today. So, he thought it was best for the doctors to look into it. We're all obviously very concerned for him."

The spokesperson then added that the tests had been taken as a "precautionary measure".

Ferry has been busy recently, embarking on a world tour with Roxy Music that finished in New Zealand last month. Set to last for a gruelling four and a half month period the 65 year old singer is hoping to re-schedule the shows at some point.

Get well soon Bryan!
