Rational Youth make plans for retro album

Tracy Howe and Kevin Komoda plan to record a new retro synthpop album with Rational Youth this summer. 

- We are going to go so retro, ie analog, play live, record it on magnetic tape and release it on vinyl. We’re becoming like “real ale” fanatics or something but really there’s no other way. Yes it’s back to the future but it’s an attempt to rise above the mediocrity of “now”, Howe says.
