Kommende Andrew WK-album giver titelproblemer

Energiudladningen og partymonstret Andrew WK er igen løbet ind problemer med hensyn til albumindpakning. WK's debutalbum "I Get Wet" blev af mange amerikanske musikbutikker klistret til med et stort sort klistermærke, da coveret var et billede af WK med en gigantisk blodtud. WKs næste album, der udsendes til september, har fået arbejdstitlen "Blow Your Bone", og dette er ifølge rollingstone.com for meget for nogle amerikanske butikker, da titlen kan oversættes til "giv dig selv en kødhætte".

"Vi har nogle problemer med titlen, der hentyder til at sprænge et kyllingeben i luften med dynamit. Folk læser for meget i den titel. Nogle butikker har sagt, at de gerne vil sælge det kommende album, men ikke, hvis det har den titel, så vi er måske tvunget til at ændre titlen. Måske ender albummet med den titel, fordi jeg gør, som jeg vil, og så tager vi os af de eventuelle problemer, når de kommer," siger WK.

Som tidligere skrevet her på siden er WK i gang med at indspille det nye kuld sange i et hemmeligt studie i New York, og indtil videre har han lavet en 25 stykker. Andrew løfter sløret for mulige inkluderede sange som "Violent Life", "Never Ending Party", "Close Calls With Brick Walls", "Kicks And Bricks" og "Addicted To Life".

Lyrisk set er WK inspireret af den positive respons, han har modtaget af fans det sidste års tid: "Folk har fortalt mig, hvad de kunne lide på "I Get Wet", og albummet har virkelig ført folk sammen på en stærk måde, som jeg ikke havde regnet med, og det respekterer jeg. Jeg er inspireret af det og rørt, og jeg har lyst til at leve op til det og gøre folk glade igen."

Selvom WK er i fuld gang med at indspille sit nye album, tager han sig stadig tid til at svare på spørgsmål, som fans stiller på hans hjemmeside. WK giver for eksempel følgende svar på det banale spørgsmål om, hvorvidt han bedst kan lide Coca-Cola eller Pepsi:

Answer:
Dear Soda Pop, This is a very hard question! It's one of the biggest questions of all time! People have been debating this for many years now... wow... there was a time when all I really knew about was Coca Cola. The red can, the history, the legacy - it was all so compelling, any other choice seemed truly absurd, and I enjoyed the slightly harsh flavor and the acid sting at the back of my throat! It was intense! You know? Plus, because it tasted kind of weird it reminded me of drinking something very grown up, like beer or buttermilk. When I was younger I would pour a glass of Coca Cola and let it sit out in the sun so it would loose all it's fiz and get nice and warm. That's the way I liked it best! Then, almost out of nowhere, Pepsi seemed to appear. I had a friend who only drank R.C. cola, and another friend who only drank Diet America's Choice Sugar Free with Nutrasweet, and they both switched to Pepsi, so it was only natural that I switched over too. It was so sweet and tasty - it seemed like it had been sitting in the sun already, straight out of the bottle! Things were about to take a turn for the worse, because my Mom and Dad put an end to any and all softdrinks except for special pizza and movie nights. And after years of living under that regime I gradually desired the sweet syrup less and less. I don't really ever drink soft drinks any more - it's kind of weird but I don't like the carbonation and they're too sweet in a sort of power sugar throat coat sting. You know? You can make you're own pop if you melt down Jolly Ranchers and mix the syrup with seltzer water! But every now and then I enjoy a great treat with a special cola of choice, and I would choose either Coke or Pepsi! They are both awesome and masters of the craft! Soft drinks and pop are great and I love them, especially Mountain Dew and Mountain Dew Code Red. I also really like Red Bull and Surge (but I think that's gone now)... and I like to drink Sunkist orange or Stewarts Creamsicle if the time is right! Cool! Thanks a lot Soda Pop!!! Your friend, Andrew W.K.
