Written largely between Bnann Watts and Matt Gooderson and produced by Martin "Youth" Glover (Verve, Guns ’n’ Roses, Depeche Mode), Universe In Reverse sees the band make the leap from dance tent to mainstage, with a more urgent, rockier sound characterised by crashing guitars and revving hoover-synths. Martin Glover, also known as Youth, (born 27 December 1960) is an influential Record producer and a founding member and Bassist of Guitarist Matt Gooderson has described this evolution of the bands sound as follows: “we took the energy and guitars of a rock ‘n’ roll band like White Stripes or Yeah Yeah Yeahs, then surrounded the music in deep, cinematic sounds”.
"Play Blind", the first material from the forthcoming album, was given away for free as a limited time download in February 2008 and a follow up single "Make Mistakes" is due for release in April.
