Vice Records have set an April 5th release date for The Raveonettes new album "Raven In The Grave," and announce Spring tour dates.To get fans excited, The Raveonettes are offering a new song "Forget That You're Young" for free download here
"I think we have finally hit on something quite important and different for this album," explains Sune. "This is the first Raveonettes album we've done which doesn't feature the signature Raveonettes surf drumbeat. None of the tunes have any real sunshine to them. It's all very un-Rave." "It has a mood of ethereal defiance," Sharin adds. "It's dark but not bleak, like the single minded determination caused by crisis that is not quite hope but just as powerful. It's the perfect winter soundtrack just in time for spring".
Beginning March 30th in Philadelphia, The Raveonettes will embark on a six-week North American headlining tour.
