Roger Waters has set May 19th as the release date for his next album, Is This the Life We Really Want?
Waters finished it last week and he says it’s based on a poem he wrote in 2008 in which he thought about things getting better with President Obama in The White House. It was produced by Nigel Godrich, whose resume includes albums by Radiohead and Paul McCartney.This is Waters’s first rock album since 1992’s Amused to Death, and he’ll follow it up with his Us and Them tour, which starts a week later on May 26th in Kansas City, Missouri.
