Keane live será el título del álbum en directo que el trío registró el pasado mes de julio en el estadio O2 de Londres en uno de sus conciertos más multitudinarios. La banda británica ha confirmado a travíés de su página web que el disco verá la luz el 12 de noviembre.
Por NACHO HERRERO /los40.com Madrid (02/10/2007)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tom Chaplin, Richard Hughes y Tim Rice-Oxley han desvelado además los contenidos de este DVD que incluirán el concierto completo, su actuación desde otras cámaras, un corto documental sobre el día del show, las pruebas de sonido y espectaculares imágenes del público durante sus mejores canciones.
Keane live incluirá subtítulos en inglíés, alemán, francíés, portuguíés y español, por lo que todo parece indicar que este lanzamiento llegará a nuestro país. Y mientras sus incondicionales esperan un nuevo disco en directo, la formación ya tiene la mente puesta en el que será su tercer elepíé de estudio. El trío regresará al estudio de grabación antes de navidad y han prometido renovar su sonido para que sea diferente a lo esperado.

Curiosidad!
El trío británico ha decidido regalar a sus fans el tema Early winter. Tim Rice-Oxley compuso el tema junto a Gwen Stefani para el segundo álbum de la californiana, The sweet scape y ahora la banda de Sussex ha querido recuperarlo para compartirlo gratuitamente con sus fans. Un detalle navideño que ha hecho las delicias de sus seguidores.

Si quieres descargarte este temazo, sólo tienes que entrar en la página oficial de la banda y clickar donde te indica. El mp3 sólo estará disponible una semana desde hoy, viernes 21 de diciembre hasta el próximo día 28.
La descarga de esta canción es todo un regalo ya que la banda nunca ha grabado este tema en estudio y antes del 28 de noviembre jamás la había tocado en directo. La grabación se realizó en el concierto acústico que Keane ofreció en el London’s Union Chapel.

El tercer álbum de estudio de Keane ya ha comenzado a tomar forma. El trío trabaja desde hace unas semanas en un local en Sussex (Reino Unido), en el disco que recogerá el testigo de Under the iron sea (2006). Su salida está prevista para septiembre de este año y podría incluir sorpresas en forma de sonido guitarrero, según recoge la revista Q.
Por REDACCIí“N /los40.com Madrid (21/01/2008)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tim Rice-Oxley comenzó a componer en abril de 2007 y junto a Richard Hughes y Tom Chaplin han dado forma a más de 20 canciones con títulos como Black burning heart, Playing away o Perfect symmetry. "Algunas de ellas tienen un sonido muy clásico y podrían formar parte de un álbum de Talking Heads, de U2 en los años 80 o de David Bowie" explica el grupo.
Tras dos álbumes en los que han recogido el aplauso unánime de crítica y público, Keane podrían estar tentando el factor sorpresa de incluir guitarras en este nuevo proyecto: "Hay grandes posibilidades. La gente tiene una idea equivocada y piensa que somos completamente inmunes a las guitarras".
El trío británico espera finalizar el proceso de grabación en verano para su posterior edición en septiembre. Aún sin título fijado, la formación llegó a barajar la posibilidad de publicar hasta cuatro EP’s con sus nuevas canciones, por lo que tocará esperar para ver el formato final de este trabajo.

Keane ya tiene su próximo trabajo discográfico casi a punto. El trío británico desvelaba hace unos meses que su tercer disco de estudio sería sorprendente sobre todo porque no descartarían introducir, por primera vez, guitarras. Sin embargo, cuenta la banda en declaraciones recogidas por Digital Spy, que se tratará de un disco "soso", simple, pero con reminiscencias ochentenas. Veamos a quíé se refieren.
Por REDACCIí“N /los40.com Madrid (19/03/2008)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hay grandes posibilidades. La gente tiene una idea equivocada y piensa que somos completamente inmunes a las guitarras", decía el cantante, Tim Rice-Oxley, hace unos meses a la revista Q. Ahora parece que la sorpresa no es sólo esa, sino que la banda afirma que se tratará de un disco "insulso e insípido", explicamos por quíé.
"Tenemos la certeza de que cuanto más soso y menos cool hagamos nuestra música, mejor", ha dicho Rice-Oxley al Daily Star y se justificaba así: “sólo cuando pierdes el miedo a romper con las reglas establecidas de la música puedes hacer un álbum realmente buenoâ€.
La banda ha estado trabajando con el productor Stuart Price (Madonna) para su próximo LP, que previsiblemente lanzará en septiembre. Y atención porque según Rice-Oxley, "una de las canciones sonará como el tema Magic Dance de la banda sonora de El Laberinto", escrita e interpretada por David Bowie. Muy ochententeros ellos.

Keane, inmersos en la preparación de su nuevo trabajo ha desvelado algunos detalles del que será su tercer disco de estudio, que tendrá como título Perfect Symmetry y será editado el próximo 13 de Octubre.
Según la propia banda ha iformado el álbum ha sido grabado entre París, Berlín, Londres y Los íngeles. "Comenzamos la grabación en Paris, donde Jon Brion, colaborador del grupo, nos sugirió crear primero y pensar despuíés", explican los británicos. "Tomamos despuíés el tren nocturno a Berlín y donde pudimos experimentar toda una avalancha de experimentaciones que nos tomó por sorpresa. Allí pactamos con Stuart Price, nuestro productor, el poder ignorar las reglas del buen gusto. Quedamos hipnotizados por Marlene Dietrich y pasamos muchas noches pensando ideas en el club berliníés Cabaret".
Tras su paso por la capital alemana el grupo se trasladó a Inglaterra, donde grabaron un tema en Londres. Tras esta grabación Keane se trasladó hasta LA, donde se encuentran ahora, ultimando los últimos detalles del álbum.
Perfect Symmetry, que verá la luz el próximo 13 de octubre supone su tercer larga duración, tras su debut en 2004 con Hopes and Feras y su segundo disco publicado en 2006 bajo el título de Under the iron sea.

Han ido desvelando detalles con cuentagotas y ya parece que el tercer disco del trío británico está a punto de caramelo. Mientras la banda ultima los pormenores de este nuevo trabajo, Perfect Symmetry ya ha anunciado el tracklist del cedíé, que estará compuesto por 11 nuevos temas.
Según ha informado la edición digital de NME, las 11 canciones de las que constará el álbum están encabezadas por Spiralling, primer single al que seguirán temas como The lovers are losing, Black Burning Heart o Love is the end.
Del disco, que ha sido grabado entre París, Berlín, Londres y Los íngeles y producido otra vez por Stuart Price, decía la propia banda que ignora las normas del buen gusto. Ya veremos si vuelven a sorprender como lo hicieran con Hopes and fears (2004) y Under the iron Sea (2006). Por el momento, del nuevo single, sólo podemos decir que es bastante agitado y ochentero.

La expectación por el giro de tuerca que Keane ha pretendido con su nuevo disco Perfect symmetry quedó gratamente satisfecha anoche en Madrid con un concierto lleno de bonitas melodías y ambiente sosegado.
Los fans que acompañaron anoche a Keane aseguran que Perfect symmetry, el disco que vinieron a presentar, es el mejor trabajo de los británicos, y pronostican que este será el álbum que definitivamente los encumbre, tras el bajón que sufrieron con su flojo segundo disco y unos macroconciertos en estadios donde se perdía el sonido tan personal y la voz de Keane.
Los británicos vuelven a salas medianas, y han abandono lo que era la marca inequívoca de su álbum debut Hope And Fears con el que alcanzaron el íéxito, un pop intimista e intenso donde la voz, el piano y la batería eran las armas con las que conquistaron al mundo. Keane se reinventa con la incorporación de un nuevo sonido, la presencia de las cuerdas, guitarra y bajo, que llenaron el escenario de un sonido mas potente y completo del que presentaban en sus otros álbumes.
La incorporación de Jesse Quinn al bajo y a los coros, en los que participan ya los 4 británicos, se confirmó ayer como un acierto, mas voces, cuerdas y teclado, otorgan al nuevo sonido de Keane mas fuerza y consiguen unas canciones menos planas y lineales.
El espectáculo de un poco mas de una hora comenzó con la locura desatada entre algunas fíéminas cuando vieron aparecer a un recuperado Tom Chaplin, y entre gritos de sus jóvenes admiradoras, Keane abrió con una bonita y perfecta The lovers are losing .
El repertorio fue amplio y previsible, dieron un paseo por sus tres discos, las canciones favoritas del público con un sonido inmejorable pero sin ninguna sorpresa. Tocaron todos los singles y el próximo en salir, que dá titulo a su disco, Perfect symmetry. Hubo momentos especialmente buenos con Again and again, This is the last time o You haven't told me anything y Chaplin brilló con un solo a la guitarra cantando Bend and Break. Luego un bis más que esperado con Black burning heart ,Is it any wonder, y Keane terminó echando el telón con Bedshaped.
El público disfrutó con las canciones de Tom Chaplin y los suyos, pero una fría y demasiado metódica actitud en el escenario, impidió que la Riviera vibrase apasionadamente con los que se postulan como referentes del pop británico, parece que tras la tormenta sufrida estos últimos años, Keane se recupera centrándose en regalar a sus seguidores profesionalidad y música de calidad sobre el escenario, dejando de lado la improvisación y la complicidad necesaria para volver loco al público, ahuyentando fantasmas del pasado.

El trío británico ha anunciado que lanzará una serie de EP's retrospectivos digitales, que únicamente estarán disponibles a travíés de la tienda que han abierto en keanemusic.com . El objetivo del grupo es que estos 'Extended Plays', incluyan material iníédito y así ofrecerles a sus fans "más leales" la oportunidad de adquirirlo.
El primero de estos lanzamientos es el EP Everybody's Changing, a un precio de 3,95 libras (4,92 euros). Ninguno de estos temas se puede encontrar en ningún otro sitio y el video chat (corte 7) se ha hecho especialmente para la ocasión.
Lista de temas del EP Everybody's changing
1. Original demo
2. Demo from July 2002
3. Fierce Panda version
4. Live version from first Lamacq Live electric session on Radio 1
5. Demo of Fly To Me (Everybody's Changing B-side)
6. Demo of Into The Light (Unreleased Song)
7. Video chat of Tim interviewed by Tom about Everybody's Changing
Tim Rice-Oxley, uno de los componentes del grupo, ha escrito algunas notas que acompañan a cada una de estas canciones. Por ejemplo, esta es la correspondiente al corte 1, Original Demo (Maqueta original): "Compuse Everybody's Changing en algún momento, a principios de 2002. Me acuerdo una tarde sentado al piano en casa de mamá y papá... En ese momento estábamos trabajando en Bend and Break y en algún otro tema, y no pensíé que la melodía de 'Everybody's Changing' fuera tan buena como para convertirse en una canción, así que tampoco me esforcíé mucho en la demo. De todas formas, cuando la toquíé para Tom y Richard, y otros amigos en BMG Publishing (que nos acababan de contratar), les encantó, así que terminamos la letra y empezamos a trabajar en ella de forma adecuada".

If you've already bought and downloaded the EP, then go back to your download 'basket' to re-download the EP.

In other news, this chap needs a little help with his "oooh!".
See you on Wednesday...

El batería del trío británico, Richard Hughes ha confirmado que la banda está trabajando junto a la estrella del rap en una canción. Tambiíén ha confesado que les gustaría grabar más temas junto a West.
El germen de esta colaboración nació hace unos días en un estudio parisino. Fue allí donde Keane conoció a Kanye West , quien grabó una versión rap de una de las últimas canciones del grupo, You Haven't Told Me Anything.
Durante aquel encuentro, el teclista y compositor del grupo Tim Rice-Oxley, reveló como West había reconstruido Perfect Symmetry , tema que da nombre al último álbum de Keane.
Ahora, en una entrevista con BBC6, Hughes ha dicho que les gustaría poder trabajar junto a West en más temas: "Creo que Tim (Rice-Oxley) le dejó una canción que había escrito algún tiempo atrás. Le faltaba rematar una parte que tenía que ser interpretada por un vocalista invitado y esperamos que sea Kanye quien se encargue de hacerlo". Y bromeando, dijo: "No síé, podríamos hacer un pequño EP, y llamarlo Keane-ye o algo así"
Sobre su encuentro con el rapero, Hughes añadió que "Habíamos pensado pedirle que nos hiciera una remezcla, y al final hizo un poco de rap con You haven't told me anything".
No obstante, no tienen claro cómo publicar el tema: "No síé lo que vamos a hacer para que vea la luz. Intentaremos coger esa idea y trabajar en ella, porque sería una vergí¼enza sacarla sin haberla retocado".

EXCLUSIVE Q&A WITH TIM
For the latest in our regular chats with the band, we called up Tim to talk about the upcoming tour, Keane's lost classic and a strange Swedish sleepwalk...
Hello Mr Rice-Oxley. How are you?
I'm fine, thank you.
Did you have a nice Christmas?
Yeah, pretty chilled out. Didn't do very much really. Watched quite a lot of Entourage and Spooks. It was good.
You're on record as saying that Christmas is something of a disappointment. Was that the case this year?
Well, Christmas Day was a disappointment because I had some nasty virus and spent most of the day either in bed or being sick. So that was a shame. But other than that, it's been nice to just inhabit the real world and be at home.
What were you doing at midnight on December 31st?
Probably reading a book. We went for the minimalist approach to festivities this year.
Are you excited about 2009?
Yeah, I think it's gonna be great. It's certainly going to be busy and it's nice to feel that the tour is finally getting going properly. We had that great European tour in November and then just as we were getting into the swing of it, we were back in London doing bits and bobs of promotion. It'll be good to get the Keane machine properly on the road all over the world.
Does it feel daunting having so much in the diary?
I'm looking forward to it, to be honest. Pretty much everyone in the world has to go out and work every day, so I try not to get too worried about the fact that we have to get out there and play a bit of music! It's going to be busy, but it's going to be great. So far the live shows have been really, really fun and I much prefer playing live to doing interviews.
Oh. Would you like to play piano for the rest of this phone call?
No, it's OK.
So, March 13th is the final gig of the ones that have been announced. Is it safe to say there will be more coming?
Yeah, I think we'll be busy until the end of the summer at least. And then we'll see where we stand. I imagine by that point we might be eager to get into writing again and thinking about new songs. But we'll just see how it goes. Everyone's very excited about the touring, so we just want to roll with that for the time being.
Do you have big plans for the upcoming UK shows, as they're in big arenas?
Yeah, I think we'll be stepping it up from what we were doing in Europe. We'll be really trying to bring some of the best elements from what we learned touring arenas last time, and combine that with a lot of new songs and a new visual identity. I think we've been a lot bolder and more colourful and high energy so far on this tour, and it'll be really nice to see that in a big venue setting. I also think that we've learned a lot about playing songs acoustically, from the European tour and also doing things like that Largo show. And I think we'll be trying to incorporate some of that spirit into the really big shows. I think the contrast should be really exciting.
The Largo and Union Chapel acoustic shows both went down incredibly well.
Yeah, it's turned out to be something that we really enjoy. There's quite a big thrill in just being exposed in that way and feeling like it's just about the moment and the four of you playing to a few people in the room. In contrast to the big production of a big show, there's something quite magical about taking it back to the very basic parts of the music.
Will the next single from the album be announced soon?
Yep, I've just been working on a radio edit of that.
Some people were a little unsure about the Perfect Symmetry radio edit, because it chopped out big parts of the song. Is it hard for you chopping your own song?
Yeah, I don't ever like doing radio edits. I hate it really. But it's a clear choice between your song being played on the radio and your song not being played on the radio. But it just acts as a taster for people. I don't feel like Keane's music is ever going to be adequately represented by one song being played on the radio, even if it was a six minute song. So really you've just got to do your best to get it on the airwaves then hope people hear it and come and hear the album, which I feel is the medium in which we really excel.
True. Although, saying that, at gigs you've been performing the radio edit of Spiralling.
Yeah. But that's mainly down to being really disorganised. We haven't got round to learning the full version! But we do quite enjoy playing the radio edit. That is actually the one Keane song I've ever felt was genuinely tightened up by the radio edit, rather than just becoming a snapshot of the song.
So, we've started posting up the archive of all the old gigs. Do you remember the first ever Keane show?
Yes, the Hope & Anchor on July 13th 1998. I've got the setlist here.
Did you play any songs we'd have heard of?
No, nothing. Apart from a cover of Paperback Writer.
So you subsequently dropped every other song?
Yeah.
Are there any on the setlist you wish you'd stuck with?
Yeah, I think there's some good songs on there.
Which is the real lost classic?
Well there was a song called Gingerbread, which was the last song we played at that show. That was the favourite among our friends. It was a really good song. I still think it would probably be a hit if you released it now.
You never recorded it?
Not properly, no. But every time I see Chris from Coldplay he always says, without fail, "When are you gonna release Gingerbread?" Which can only mean that my songwriting ability has gradually receded over the last ten years!
Could you still play it?
Pretty much, yeah. And I'm sure we've got it on a tape somewhere. But most of the songs we played that night were recorded on four-track at some point. So Gingerbread will probably appear on a Keane anthology eventually.
It looks from the gigs list that you didn't really start playing regularly until 2003.
Yeah, that's true. But I think there might be a couple missing from your list. I seem to remember we played at the Barfly in Sheffield. And the Night And Day in Manchester. Perhaps the fans can help fill in the gaps.
Of the early gigs, the one on 21 September 2000 leaps out as unusual, because you were supporting Chesney Hawkes! Do you remember it?
I do, vividly. We were offered that gig at the last minute. We were all at work and I remember Adam [Keane's manager] ringing up saying we'd been offered it. So we borrowed some instruments and just turned up and played a fairly ropey sort of gig. Actually, I seem to remember that our playing was slightly hampered by it being after two or three pints of beer. But we muddled through. And the thing I remember about Chesney is that there were quite a few people there, most of them female, but he didn't play The One And Only. It was quite bizarre not to play his big hit. But I think he was trying to re-launch himself as a serious musician.
And your last gig with Dom on guitar was on 12 July 2001 in London.
Yeah, I remember that. And then we didn't play again until the Night And Day, which I think would've been about September 2002.
How did you end up in Malmo in March 2003?
That came about because that gig we did at The Garage, in February, The Ark were also on the bill. They really liked our set, so they invited us to come and support them in Malmo. They paid for us to go over. It was great. We flew to Malmo and played this gig with a fantastic Swedish crowd and everyone was really nice to us. We had a really, really fun time. I particularly remember I was sharing a room with Tom and he sleepwalked down to the lobby of the hotel in his underpants in the middle of the night! They were a great band The Ark. A bit like The Darkness, but much better.
When you look at the list of the shows, do you remember them clearly?
There are specific ones I can remember. But then we must've played at the Bull And Gate three or four times and I can't remember all of them.
It seems like a long time ago since those very early shows.
I know, it's mad!
So, have you been writing any new songs?
A little bit. But I find you have to just absorb life a little bit. And I've been listening to a lot of music, which has been nice.
What have you been listening to?
I actually got given several copies of Alex James' autobiography for Christmas, even though I've already read it. But I was leafing through that again and that inspired me to go back and listen to some Blur, which I loved.
Which album?
My two favourites are Parklife and the self-titled one. Especially the latter. And Modern Life Is Rubbish is brilliant too. And I've been listening to that Amadou and Mariam album that came out before Christmas a lot. And, funnily enough, some of that is a collaboration with Damon Albarn. But I suppose I've just been trying to get out of the mindset in which I wrote the last album, so that when I start writing new songs, they'll come from a fresh place.

Los componentes de Keane han tomado la decisión de hacer las maletas y marcharse de Gran Bretaña. Quieren dar un cambio a su imagen, y el destino elegido para conseguir este objetivo es Amíérica.
El trío ha contado que deja su país porque está cansado de la gente que solo se fija en sus raíces (pertenecen a una clase social alta). Tom Chaplin, Tim Rice-Oxley y Richard Hughes creen que un traslado a Estados Unidos, donde tienen un montón de fans cíélebres como Gwen Stefani y Kanye West, servirá para que tomen en serio su música.
Tom ha revelado al Daily Star: "Es sorprendente cómo se ha extendido nuestra música en otros artistas, especialmente en Amíérica. Allí no estamos tan marcados con todos esos 'sambenitos' que nos han colgado en Gran Bretaña. Que si somos unos pijos, etc, aireando cosas que nada tienen que ver con nuestra música"
"Alli únicamente juzgan la música así que tenemos a toda esa gente estupenda y pronto contaremos con algunas colaboraciones emocionantes".
A pesar de haber cambiado su estilo en su más reciente álbum, "Perfect Symmetry", el grupo admite su ambición de continuar evolucionando musicalmente: "Algunas bandas encuentran su estilo y se quedan estancadas. Pero hay otros que progresan como Radiohead, que siempre hacen algo diferente y nos sorprenden", dice Richard Hughes
"En este momento lo estamos absorbiendo todo" comenta Tom Rice-Oxley. El grupo espera que su traslado a Estados Unidos les ayude a perfilar una nueva dirección en su sonido.

El trío británico sigue de imparable gira por todo el mundo presnetado su último trabajo, Perfect Symmetry. Estados Unidos, Singapur, Rusia o Japón son algunos de los variopintos destinos por lo que se podrá ver este verano a la banda liderada por Tom Chaplin. Pero, como no podía ser de otra manera el grupo tambiíén pasará por nuestro país, y más en concreto por dos localidades de una punta y otra de España, Ibiza y Vigo.
La primera de ellas será una curisosa parada en la isla blanca de la mano de Ibiza Rocks, una curiosa iniciativa para los que quieren disfrutar de verdad de la música en directo. Otros grandes nombres de la escena internacional pasarán durante este verano por el hotel de Sant Antoni (Ibiza), como por ejemplo The Kooks, MGMT, Dizzie Rascal o Vampire Weekend.
La cita en esta ocasión será este martes 14 de julio a partir de las 22:30. Antes de su actuación pasarán por el escenario otras figuras y djs que irán prendiendo la mecha para el petardazo final con el concierto de Tom Richard y Tim. Algunos de ellos son Golden Silvers, Zane Lowe o Doorly. Un evento para no perderse.

Keane vuelve en mayo con 'Strangeland'

Keane ha anunciado que lanzará su nuevo disco, Strangeland, el próximo 7 de mayo. Para este trabajo, el trío británico han contado con la colaboración de Dan Grech-Marguerat, productor tambiíén de The Vaccines.
Strangeland, que será el cuarto álbum de estudio de Keane, incluirá 12 temas que se distanciarán un poco de la línea de su último trabajo, Perfect Symetry, recuperando el íéxito de sus primeros discos Hopes And Fears y Under The Iron Sea: "En muchos sentidos es como si se completara un círculo. En el álbum hay muchas canciones que se inspiran en experiencias vividas creciendo en Battle, siendo críos. No puedes volver atrás claro, pero de vez en cuando, despuíés de un buen día nos vamos a un pub y charlamos un poco de todo o nada, hasta que llega la hora de ir a casa. Sea lo que sea lo que nos hace ser Keane, ese pegamento invisible, aún sigue ahí. Y se puede escuchar en Strangeland", explica Richard Hughes, batería del grupo.
Por otro lado, este será el primer trabajo de Keane con Jesse Quin (bajisita) como miembro oficial de la banda, que empezará su gira promocional junto a "invitados especiales" en el O2 Academy de Newcastle el 23 de mayo y que durará hasta el 8 de junio en el O2 Britxton Academy de Londres.
Tracklist de Strangeland:
1. You Are Young
2. Silenced By The Night
3. Disconnected
4. Watch How You Go
5. Sovereign Light Cafíé
6. On The Road
7. The Starting Line
8. Black Rain
9. Neon River
10. Day Will Come
11. In Your Own Time
12. Sea Fog

El director Juan Antonio Bayona y el guionista Sergio G. Sánchez han dirigido juntos el video de Disconnected, una de las canciones del esperado nuevo álbum de la banda Keane, que lleva por título Strangeland y se editará el 7 de mayo (un día despuíés en España).
Bayona y Sánchez trabajaron juntos por primera vez en la película de terror El Orfanato, que dirigió Bayona y cuyo guión es de Sánchez. Su segundo proyecto se estrenará a finales de año, con el título de Lo Imposible, un drama íépico sobre el Tsunami en Tailandia de 2004, protagonizado por Naomi Watts y Ewan McGregor.
Bayona, Sánchez y la banda rodaron el video en una casa "encantada" de Barcelona, siguiendo la línea de la estíética de terror de los 70 característica del director. Han creado un guion surrealista a la vez que conmovedor que narra la historia de dos amantes que se han visto separados y lleva a cuestionar la noción de realidad y moralidad, informa Universal Music.
Para Juan Antonio Bayona y Sergio G. Sánchez, "este no ha sido un encargo más". "Hemos pasado muchas horas disfrutando cada uno de los discos de Keane. Ha sido fantástico formar parte de su nuevo trabajo y una gozada que ellos lo hayan disfrutado tanto como nosotros", afirman.
Por su parte, el vocalista Tom Chaplin asegura que todos salieron "entusiasmados" en cuanto vieron el resultado final. Además, apunta que rodaron en una "casa escalofriante al estilo de las películas de terror italianas de los años setenta".
"Va a ser totalmente diferente a todo lo que hemos hecho hasta ahora. De hecho, todavía estamos escupiendo trozos de hojas secas de una de las escenas. La visión de Juan y Sergio es única y muy emocionante, ha sido una experiencia inspiradora", añade Chaplin.
Por ahora no hay fecha para el estreno del video. Esta semana Keane estrenaban en radios de todo el mundo el primer single del disco, Silenced By The Night, ya disponible en formato digital en España. La banda está actualmente en Estados Unidos, donde actuarán por primera vez en el South By South West Festival.

La banda británica ha estrenado el videoclip de Disconnected, canción elegida como primer single del álbum Strangeland. El vídeo tiene toda una impronta española: ha sido dirigido por Juan Antonio Bayona, el guión es de Sergio G.Sánchez, ha sido rodado en Barcelona y sus protagonistas son, además de los miembros de la banda, Leticia Dolera y Fíélix Gómez.
El vídeo de 'Disconnected' tiene como trama una casa encantada de Barcelona y una pareja de amantes separados. La estíética es la de una película de terror de los años 70, con los críéditos en italiano y una textura vintage.
El realizador español Juan Antonio Bayona se ha vuelto a aliar con el guionista Sergio G.Sánchez para grabar este videoclip, grabado en Barcelona y que tiene como protagonistas a los actores españoles Leticia Dolera y Fíélix Gómez.
Bayona y Sánchez colaboraron por primera vez en la película El Orfanato, protagonizada por Belíén Rueda, y su próximo proyecto juntos verá la luz próximamente, Lo imposible, con Naomi Watts y Ewan McGregor como personajes principales.
Strangeland es el cuarto álbum de estudio de Keane, cuya salida está prevista para el 7 de mayo.

Keane vuelven a nuestro país este mes.El cuarteto británico no ha querido dejar pasar la oportunidad de presentar su primer disco de estudio en cuatro años, Strangeland (editado en mayo 2012), en un ambiente que les acerque más a sus fans. Por ello, anuncia nuevas fechas: Madrid , Palacio Vistalegre (Viernes 19), Pamplona, Teatro Baluarte (martes 23) y Barcelona, Sala Razzmatazz (miíércoles 24).
Tienen cinco discos, Hopes and Fears, Under the Iron Sea, Perfect Symmetry, Night Train y el último, Strangeland.
Su nuevo single Sovereign Light Cafíé fue el primer tema compuesto para Strangeland. La canción surgió en la gira de 2009, en un trayecto en coche desde el aeropuerto de Sí¢o Paulo al hotel, a raíz de un recuerdo de la costa de Bexhill por donde unos Keane adolescentes solían andar en bici. En aquel momento la banda decidió que el disco estaría listo cuando estuviese listo. Sin marcarse plazos.
