The Streets Set To Go 'Ravey' On Last Album

Mike Skinner has revealed that the new Streets album, which he has previously said will be their last, “sounds ravey”.

Blogging from his new studio, his sofa, Skinner also denied that the album would sound similar to Lou Reed's Classic 'Berlin'.

He wrote: “I don't have a studio at the moment so my sofa is it. It is actually quite a good studio. It is warm and software can do such a great job these days.

“Anyway, the album doesn't sound like Lou Reed's Berlin because I never said Lou Reed, I only said 'Berlin'. Incorporating some kind of post modernist art house bauhaus row with foul mouths.

“But it's not that at all. It now sounds ravey. It is a ravey album album that bludgeons you over the head with its stick of 1988 Romford, Blackpool and Philadelphia rock. It is an insane album.”

The album will be the follow up to 2008's 'Everything Is Borrowed'.
