There is something to be said about a band who loses a founding member but keeps on making records like clockwork.
According to their website Canadian alt.rockers Our Lady Peace are closing in on the release of their fifth record due in stores on June 11. Gravity is OLP's first album sans guitarist Mike Turner, who left the band after what was described as an "amicable" separation in December. The band does not seem to have been set back however — this is their second album in the past two years.
Gravity closely follows Spiritual Machine, which was released in 2001 and has earned the band three nominations at this year's Juno Awards in St. John's, Newfoundland.
OLP is nominated for Best Group, Best Single for "Life" and Best Album.
Since the departure of Turner, OLP has launched a search to find the right man (or woman) to fill his shoes. If this is the first you've heard of this, time is running out. Applications, which consist of a video resume (maximum of four minutes) containing your best guitar work followed by a brief description of yourself, are due by March 31.
No tour or performance dates have been released yet, but the first single from Gravity "Somewhere Out There" is already on rotation at radio stations across North America.
