The album will be entitled 'Change Becomes Us' and as it is reported, it will include some unrecorded material originally written in 1979–80 which had only ever existed as quickly prepared sketches for one-off performance.

The 13 track record is due on March 25, 2013 and we hope to get more official news soon.

Next Wave: Inouwee
Inouwee is a Danish indie pop electro duo from Copenhagen consisting of Kaare Hansen and Signe Marike. Their passion for music brought them together and they launched Inouwee in 2009. Since then they were continuously making songs, developing their music and growing with their name.
Their music is reflecting the matter of life, death, loss, hopes and ambitions. Signe's soft and honest vocal, combined with heavy beats and Kaare's melodic guitar and keyboard, creates a genre somewhere in between trip-hop and electro and delivers a pure nordic excellence in sound. . Their debut EP 'Ghosts and Shadows' is out now while their album "Based On An Untrue Story" is expected to be released by the end of the year.
