Johnny Marr is releasing his new album, Fever Dreams, as a series of four EPs. The first EP was just released and Fever Dreams Pt 2 will be out December 17 via BMG. He's just shared two tracks from it: gleaming rocker "Tenement Time," and the dancier, more electro "Sensory Street."
"That’s the experience of growing up in the inner city as a little kid, running around being quite wild," Marr says of "Tenement Time." "This idea of 'Forever, forever is mine' - it’s about running around Ardwick, bunking into warehouses and getting chased. That was the first time I was self-consciously into culture: around people who wore certain clothes, and it was part of being a little Manchester boy, really. I have a real romanticism about that period of my life.” As for "Sensory Street," Johnny says it's "story of a surreal 48 hours in subterranean England."
