Springsteen: New CD

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN: Angry Album

Bruce Springsteen has played his new album for execs at Columbia Records, and insiders describe it as the "angriest he's ever made," but "very rock and roll... He gets into economic justice quite a bit... Bear in mind, though, that he wrote and recorded the majority of the album before the Occupy movements started, so he's not just setting headlines to music." The source adds that there are "unexpected textures -- loops, electronic percussion...an amazing sweep of influences and rhythms, from hip-hop to Irish folk rhythms."

The album is being produced by Ron Aniello, who has worked with Springsteen's wife, Patti Scialfa. There's no title or release date yet, although it is expected around the reported start of his tour, March 2nd in Denver.
