Oye, I know you must be super excited :D

Todd Rundgren, who produced New York Dolls' 1973 self-titled debut album, is set to reunite with the band and produce their next.

Rundgren will hit the studio with founding New York Dolls members David Johansen and Sylvain Sylvain in January to record the album, which is as-yet untitled. The band will follow the release of the LP with a world tour.

The album will be released on the newly-relaunched Atco label through Warners.

"We're really excited to be working with Todd again," frontman Johansen said in a statement. "We're hoping to recapture the same magic on the forthcoming album [that was on the debut]."

This seems like a bad idea to me. As much as I love the NYD, this reeks of desperation. What can they possibly have to say? Punk shouldn't ever be played in the geriatric wing. 'Get off the stage.'

I really love their first albums... My favourite song is either Bad Girl or Showdown, but that last album is close to awful! It seems like they were influenced by all these later VERY American pop-punk bands, rather than the other way around. :( Please do this well!

Todd Rundgren as in the musician Todd Rundgren? As in the Todd Rundgren that stole my hair style and color scheme??? :mad: :angry: I hate that guy!!

such exciting news!

oh, wait...

such exciting news!

oh, wait...

Sarcky git!:p There's always a possibility it will be like the first... :( They were the best band I've ever seen live apart from Moz and when they were supporting Moz, I'm not sure who I preferred. Their last album was shite though. Except, the song from the last album We're All in Love is fantastic live-it sounds like a horror punk song, especially with Sylvain, Conte etc's backing vocals

Lemme know when the new Buster Pointdexter album will be out.:rolleyes:

For all of you in need of a little Xmas cheer
