Taken from AP.net: “The Ataris will start recording their new album Welcome The Night next week. It will be produced by Nick Launay (Nick Cave, The Posies, Silverchair) and they will be recording for about two months. There are about fifteen songs that they plan to record currently, and are now officially a seven piece band with the additions of Bob Hoag (The Go Reflex) on Piano/Mellotron/etc. and Angus Cooke (Bad Astronaut) on cello and as a third guitarist. The new album will be a concept album based in three acts, centering around a re-occuring dream from childhood as well as “man’s obsession with loss, hope and redemption”.”
