Chicago’s The Scissors are currently demoing songs for their fourth full-length and plan to begin recording in May. The album is set to be recorded at Catfish Studios in Lombard, Illinois and will be coproduced by the band and Steve Mast, (ex-Plain White T’s). “Answers” is sung by guitarist Yvonne Szumski, who’s now handling a bulk of the lead vocal responsibilities. The song features blazing guitar leads, a driving rhythm and plenty of rock ‘n roll attitude. In some ways it’s similar to certain aspects of their 2010 record You Can Make It Dangerous, but in others it displays a new and exciting portrayal of the band. The version of “Answers” that’s streaming below is in fact a demo and will differ from what ultimately appears on the forthcoming album. The Scissors recently returned from a successful appearance at SXSW and upon completion of their new record intend to tour extensively in 2011. By all accounts they’re a great live band, so be sure to catch one of their upcoming shows and look for a new Scissors CD later this year.
