Stereogum’s progress report feature is one of the coolest on any blog right now. They get some good inside scoop on how our favorite artists new album’s are shaping up. Today’s was the awesome french band Phoenix. After the highly enjoyable album “It’s Never Been Like That” we all have high expectations for their new album “Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix”. It is set to come out on sometime in spring this year. You can actually preview some of the album at their website wearephoenix.com. Sweeeeeeeet

Here is a cool photo of the band in studio working on the album:

Can’t wait for this one. 2009 is shaping up quite nice! To read what Stereogum got out of the band on the album head over to stereogum.
