Adam Freeland to release new album

Come summer 2009, iconoclastic producer/DJ Adam Freeland will release Cope, his first artist album in six years, on his own independent Marine Parade label. Like his 2003 solo album debut Now&Them and its uncompromising worldwide smash "We Want Your Soul," Freeland's much-anticipated latest traffics in the unexpected—electro beats banging enough to fill dancefloors, yet twisted with sounds and collaborations from uncharted waters. Indeed, Cope ultimately proves a genre-smashing, era-defining call to arms on par with Leftfield's Leftism, Prodigy's Fat Of The Land, Daft Punk's Discovery and Justice's †, defying expectations of what an electronic album should and could be.

The album sees collaborations with Joey Santiago (Pixies), Twiggy Ramirez (Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails), Brody Dalle (Spinnerette/Distillers), Jerry Casale (Devo) and Tommy Lee (Motley Crue).

Filled with paranoiac wordplay and skewed political commentary that complements the futuristic yet dissident sonics, such songs almost tip Cope into concept-album territory—except for the fact that it never sits still long enough for any concept to take hold. In the end, Cope proves a revealing snapshot that refuses to remain in focus, a brutally vivid document of yesterday's future today, intentionally timeless yet shocking enough to wake up today's attention-deficit dancefloors addicted to nothing.
