Enter into the Scissorhood.

Very excited here. Enjoying the new track from the Scissor Sisters, "Invisible Light" featuring a spoken word bridge by Sir Ian McKellan (of course). This album comes out in June, and it would be hard for me to have more anticipation for it. The album is themed around the "darker side of disco," and Jake Shears' idea of how his fantasy NYC world would be realized.

Night Work tracklisting:
"Night Work"
"Whole New Way"
"Fire With Fire"
"Any Which Way"
"Harder You Get"
"Running Out"
"Something Like This"
"Skin This Cat"
"Skin Tight"
"Sex and Violence"
"Night Life"
"Invisible Light"

You can preview the closing track, a real barnburner of a dance number, here:

Sadly, the 5-some has now been reduced to four. "Paddy Boom" seems to have left the band. It was a good ride I'm sure. I was fortunate enough to see them perform at the Bluebird Theater on their first tour. Kevin, Kenny, Xena and I had a great time (and nervously couldn't stop ogling singer Jake Shears across the street at Mezcal sitting nearby, drinking tea and reading prior to the show. Here's their current look (plus some additional goodies). Enjoy.
