In the previous post you saw the very long album title, you saw the weird-looking cover and you saw the track listings (two of them being pictures rather than written words). We posted some of the information earlier on this site, but were told to take it off and we know now why… there were […]

The Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation NRK posted two videos of interviews that were made in New York when Mew were finishing the album at the legendary Electric Lady Studios. Jonas Bjerre and Bo Madsen talk about the upcoming album in Danish, but unfortunately the clips are not subtitled in any language. In the first clip they

Yes, we all have heard it. Mew 5 (as we currently like to call it) was supposed to be out on the shelves next month, but according to the Danish music magazine Gaffa, it has been postponed ’til August. These kind of delays have been very common in the world of Mew. Rumour has it

More dates have been announced by Nine Inch Nails‘ official tour site and by Mew‘s MySpace. Mew will also support NIN in Germany, France and Luxembourg – at least. So far the confirmed NIN-shows are as follows (right now it looks like the UK shows are the only ones with Jane’s Addiction performing as well):

Mew have not confirmed any of these dates (yet?), but Last.fm is fairly certain that the Danes will support Nine Inch Nails with or without Jane’s Addiction at least in The Netherlands and UK the following July. Apparently Mew will play in Amsterdam on July 8th, Manchester on July 14th and London on July 15th.

The first UK show for 2009 has been confirmed. Mew have been announced to Latitude Festival held in Henham Park, in the small town of Southwold (Suffolk, England). This is a relatively new festival (established just three years ago) and Mew will play on July 17th, just before the previously announced American show in Chicago.

Mew will play at this year’s Pukkelpop Festival in Kiewit-Hasselt, Belgium. The festival is held on August 20th-22nd and the line-up looks pretty good so far. This is one of the largest festivals in Belgium – gathering approximately 150 000 attendees per year and having over 200 acts performing. EDIT: CANCELLED!!!

Seems like we get tour dates all the time. Sweden has now been added and therefore the whole Nordic region is pretty much complete. Mew will play at this year’s Storsjöyran Festival held in the town of Östersund in the middle of Sweden. The Danes were supposed to play “Yran” already in 2006, but had

Good news for all Norwegians (and/or Western Swedes). Mew will play at this year’s Øyafestival in the city of Oslo. The gig takes place on the same week as the previously announced Beatday-gig in Copenhagen. Mew will take the stage in Oslo on August 12th and it will be their ONLY summer festival in Norway
