Brett Anderson on ilmoittanut julkaisevansa toisen soololevynsä 7. heinäkuuta. Anderson on muiden mukana lähtenyt etsimään uusia jakelu- ja julkaisutapoja musiikilleen. Tuleva Wilderness -levy lähetetään usb-tikulle tallennettuna kaikille niille, jotka ovat ostaneet lipun levyn julkkarikeikalle.

Andersonilla kommentoi levyä omalla nettifoorumillaan:

“ok, so the album is all done and ready to roll. i recorded everything live to 2 inch tape with no click tracks and just one other musician playing cello. the whole thing was recorded and mixed in 7 sunny days in May and it was one of the most satisfying records i have ever been involved with. it is simple, personal, bleak, raw, romantic and soulful and is full of the jagged edges and hiss and crackle of the studio. of course i love the songs, there would be something very wrong if i didn’t. (…) i have no record company, no publisher, and a dwindling audience but i have never been more confident and focussed about what i am doing as an artist. the title of the album reflects this sense of where i see myself but you will have to wait for that. (…) there will be some new You Tube films appearing very soon of bits and pieces of new songs in their rawest form so keep your eyes peeled…”

Täytyy toivoa, että Anderson olisi löytänyt vihdoin muusansa ja uuden levyn sisältö olisi jotain aivan muuta, kun ensimmäisen soolon kovin hengettömät ja kankeat biisit. Oheisen treenivideon perusteella näin voisi olla.
