Scissor Sisters frontman Jake Shears
has said the group's upcoming fourth album will be a departure from
2010's Night Work.
The group has already released a video
for Shady Love, the first single from the yet-to-be-named
album. (Watch
the video at gay male entertainment blog AfterElton.com.)
In an interview with The
West Australian, Shears described the album as “very
different” from the group's previous ones.
“The last album was very cold and had
lots off sex and dark moods, which is why I loved it,” Shears said.
“This one has a real emotional quality, a real honesty and a
romantic and loving feeling. It's summery and sunny and I think
connects emotionally.”
“I really think people are going to
fall in love with the music. I feel great about it. We're doing
things we've never done before and taking turns which will put jaws
on the floor. Be ready for some big surprises.”
Shears added that the new album will
come out sometime in the next six months.
Until then, fans will have to make do
with Night Work, which has been described as the band's gayest
work.
