For those waiting for info regarding the new Tears For Fears album, the word is that they have extricated themselves and the album from Arista, and although unconfirmed as yet they are signing with Universal, and "Everybody Loves A Happy Ending" will be released in September. Nick D'Virgilio (drummer for Spock's Beard, Mike Keneally Band, Kevin Gilbert, & The Rubinoos) has reported that he has been re-recruited for the drum throne for the upcoming tour. The first single will be "Call Me Mellow" (a far better selection than the previous "Closest Thing To Heaven") which simply screams XTC to these ears.
