NEW SCOTT WALKER.

from 4AD…

“(19 January 06)

We’re delighted to announce that Scott Walker has completed work on his first album for the label.

The long-awaited new album – called “The Drift” – will be Scott’s first since the ground-breaking “Tilt” was released in 1995.

4AD will release the album worldwide in May. The exact date will be announced shortly.

A documentary film about Scott’s music – including the making of “The Drift” – is being made by the New York -based director Stephen Kijak. Titled “30 Century Man”, it will also be released in 2006.”
