forcin Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Posted on 30 Jul, 2009 Echo And The Bunnymen have announced details of their forthcoming (eleventh) studio album "The Fountain". The UK act also confirmed several live dates in the UK. "The Fountain" is the band's first studio album since 2005's "Siberia" and will be released on October 12. A single, "I Think I Need It Too", was due to be released in August 2008 (!) but will be released on September 28, 2009 instead. The album was produced by John McLaughlin in the Parr Street Studios in Liverpool. Coldplay singer Chris Martin has collaborated with the band on one of the album's tracks. http://www.side-line.com/news_comments.php?id=43329_0_2_0_C New Echo & The Bunnymen - "Do You Know Who I Am" The first official taste of Echo & The Bunnymen's long-awaited John McLaughlin-produced Chris Martin-featuring 11th album The Fountain is clearly rhetorical, but hey. Familiarize yourself with the question at www.bunnymen.com just in time for their APW appearance. http://stereogum.com/archives/new-echo-the-bunnymen-do-you-know-who-i-am_082091.html i've listened to the song a few times and can't really hear him, you can listen to it here on their website: http://bunnymen.com/Echo_%26_The_Bunnymen.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prospekt. Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Sounds like he's only doing the backing during the chorus. Thanks for posting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forcin Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 i'm starting to wonder if he even sings on this track? the article just mentions he's featured on the album, doesn't specify which track though:thinking: The backing vocal does sound like him:inquisitive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplayisawesome Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 yeah, it doesn't say which song. the backing vocals slightly sound like him at first, but then... they don't. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospekt. Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I dunno. The backings sound nasally like Chris. But I'd rather have him actually singing words on another track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 That's Chris singing in that song. No doubt in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Ooooh I can't decide if it sounds like him or not. It's nasally like Kiran said, but I'm still not sure it is him...although it's only backing vocals it sounds as if it has a Liverpool twang to it to me... :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forcin Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 if anyone cares, Chris sings on the title track of the new album, i still can't hear him though. The title track provides a welcome and instant injection of interest as it features Coldplay’s Chris Martin sharing vocal duties and his woody tones work really well alongside McCulloch’s. This is a good song and you may even spot a few hallmark Coldplay chord changes in here. http://consequenceofsound.net/2009/10/14/album-review-echo-the-bunnymen-the-fountain/ [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryj7R9jFkRM]YouTube - Echo and The Bunnymen - The Fountain (Video Clip)[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
