The Zombies—the psychedelic pop act best known for hits such as "She's Not There," "Time of The Season" and "Tell Her No"—has announced it will be working on a new album for 2015, Still Got That Hunger, as well as a tour in support of the release. It will be the third release since the band's resurgence during the new millennium, paired off nicely with the three records the band put out during its '60s heyday.
"We're really excited to be signing our new album to The End Records," said keyboardist Rod Argent. "It somehow seems fitting that it should be released on a Brooklyn based label, as our very first American concerts way back in 1964 took place at The Brooklyn Fox Theatre!"
The tour, which might be more interesting to the band's fans than news of new music, seems like it might have an awkward arrangement: The group's original lineup (including Argent) will play together for songs from the band's classic release Odyssey & Oracle...but that lineup won't be involved in the recording Hunger, so the group's current roster will be backing Ardent for songs from that release. It seems everybody is okay with this but we'll see.
