IMPOSTER to be released November 12th
Imposter takes listeners on a personal journey of 12 meticulously chosen reimagined songs from across genres and time periods, including selections from Neil Young, Bob Dylan, PJ Harvey, Charlie Chaplin, Cat Power and Mark Lanegan, amongst others. One would be remiss to refer to Imposter as a cover album. Rather, Imposter is a story of songs, which Dave Gahan & Soulsavers listened to, studied, absorbed, and gave a new life. All of the songs have deep meaning to Dave, making Imposter a reflection of Dave’s life – a story told by others, but in his own distinct voice.
Imposter track listing:
- The Dark End of the Street
- Strange Religion
- Lilac Wine
- I Held My Baby Last Night
- A Man Needs a Maid
- Metal Heart
- Shut Me Down
- Where My Love Lies Asleep
- Smile
- The Desperate Kingdom of Love
- Not Dark Yet
- Always On My Mind
The recording of Imposter was
done live as a ten-member band at the famed Shangri-La Recording Studio in
Malibu, CA in November of 2019. This allowed for not only a more intimate
collaboration than on previous Dave Gahan and Soulsavers projects, but let them
truly absorb the atmosphere and have the space to breathe a different spirit
into the tracks. In an interview with podcaster and media personality Chris
Black, Dave noted, “This was the first time we were all in one space. It was
kind of lucky [timing] as well… Arriving at Shangri-La every day, it was
magical. We’d have coffee, go in, and work.”
Imposter is the collaborators’ third album, following their
critically acclaimed 2015 release Angels & Ghosts and
their first release, 2012’s The Light the Dead See. The
album will be released in digital, as well as physical formats, worldwide
on November 12th through Columbia Records.
