Delirious? Keeping the Momentum (18th Nov)
The next release from the delirious? stable will be a book, Purepop?, charting the growth of the band and their continuing mission to take their chunky-pop songs to the wider public. The band's recent showcase at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire was quite a success both with the fans and the 120 or so music industry insiders who were present. The new album is to be entitled Mezzamorphis and Furious? Records are currently in talks with Virgin Records... more news as it comes in. The official Delirious? website is now up at http://www.delirious.co.uk but unfortunately makes such extensive use of Shockwave that many of us can't get in.
