Anyone interested in Spiritualized? They have a new album coming out in a few months and some copies have already been leaked on the net.

Chris Leslie-Hynan reports:
It's no hoax: Spiritualized® have recorded a new album entitled Amazing Grace. This may already be old news to file-sharers, who have been downloading the album for over a week without even being sure-- until now-- that it was actually Jason Pierce's latest opus. Many Spiritualized® fans didn't even know an album was in the works prior to its appearance on P2P file-sharing services last week.

As with the first leaked version of Radiohead's Hail To The Thief, there is some debate over whether or not these tracks are in their finished state, or whether they will undergo further mastering before the album is officially released. NME.com quoted a source as saying the album was "recorded in just a few weeks" and added "it's more stripped down than Let It Come Down. It's the antithesis of the last one." This, along with the album's brief duration (about 40 minutes) caused the magazine to dub Amazing Grace "garage." Come on lads, you're better than that.

To read more silly jokes at NME's expense and further fan reaction to the album, check out the message boards on the official Spiritualized® site. No release date has been set for Amazing Grace. The leaked tracks:

01 This Little Life of Mine
02 She Kissed Me (It Felt Like a Hit)
03 Hold On
04 Oh Baby
05 Never Goin' Back
06 The Power and the Glory
07 Lord, Let It Rain On Me
08 The Ballad of Richie Lee
09 Cheapster
10 Rated X
11 Lay It Down Slow

Spiritualized® is set to play a few U.S. dates this summer. Well, actually, that's not 100% confirmed either, but since it's posted on the band's website, we feel comfortable reporting it. According to the site, Spiritualized® will follow their performance at the Field Day festival with shows in Philadelphia and Boston. Our internet scouts also report a fourth show, at New York's Bowery Ballroom on June 10th. Dates:

06-07 Long Island, NY - Field Day Festival
06-09 Philadelphia, PA - Trocadero
06-10 New York, NY - Bowery Ballroom
06-11 Boston, MA - The Paradise
