What does an album mean anymore unless it has a narrative behind it? The new Real Tuesday Weld album 'The Last Werewolf' takes Glen Duncan's novel as the backdrop for a widescreen emotional cabaret tailor-made for the I tunes generation. The book (also being released in the States on 712) incited a bidding war in the publishing world and has already been optioned for _lm rights by Ridley Scott. The album is both a high concept single piece and a diverse playlist for the eclectic of ear and heart, all in the band's own genre 'Antique Beat'. The book's themes of violence, friendship, transformation, love and betrayal are recast as a suite of songs bound together in a soundtrack by voices and readings from the text. As ever with an album by The Real Tuesday Weld, individual tracks cover a spectrum of styles from thirties ballads and torch songs through gypsy jazz and electro-swing to minimalist electronica. A range of in_uences including Gainsbourg, Chopin, Django Reinhard, Cole Porter, Springsteen, Barry Adamson and Tom Waits hover ghostlike over the story as it develops. Guest vocalists include long term collaborators The Puppini Sisters, Joe Guillotine, Pinkie Maclure and Piney Gir. The collaboration between author and musician reprises their 2004 joint work 'I Lucifer' - a critical applauded work which spawned the international award winning and much imitated "Bathtime in Clerkenwell".
