Zwar dauert es noch immer bis zum 14. September 2010 mit der neuen Platte ‘ Lisbon ‘ der Walkmen, doch einen ersten Einblick schenken uns die Herren nun doch schon. Es ist ein sehr vielversprechender Eindruck, ‘ Stranded ‘ klingt unheimlich gefühlvoll mit einem wohlklingenden Horn, das an Sessions um die 1950er Jahre erinnert. Auch spannend ist die Entwicklung von The Walkmen, konnte man schließlich bereits auf ‘ You And Me ‘ erste Einsätze des Horns vernehmen. Hamilton Leithauser, Sänger der Band, meinte selbst folgendes dazu:
“Early on, we had a whole batch of songs that were based on this New Orleans-style horn playing that (guitarist) Paul (Maroon) was working on. But ‘Stranded’ is the only one that actually ended up making the album. I think it was maybe the second song we wrote for Lisbon, so it sort of exemplifies our sound from maybe two years ago. I guess it sounds more like our last record, You & Me, than a lot of the other songs on Lisbon.
The horn section included my wife, Anna, our lead trumpeter Paul Brandenberg, and a ratty assortment of the other guys we usually tour with — mostly trumpets and maybe two trombones. We had them all into Gigantic Studios, and I sang the whole thing live right there with them and the band.
It’s always fun doing a big production like that. Paul also added a bunch of his own trumpets down in Philly to give it that wobbly style, and maybe just to make sure it was completely out of tune. (Keyboardist) Walt (Martin) and I did the words together.
Den Track kann man sich nun bei NPR Music in voller Länge anhören.
