Courtney Love’s Hole to Release New Single in January, New Album in 2010?
10/23/2009 By Josiah Hughes

Ever since Courtney Love announced that she'd be reforming Hole earlier this year, there has been nothing but conflicting information. First, Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson said that a Hole reunion would be impossible without him. Then, bassist Melissa Auf Der Maur told Exclaim! that the reunion simply wasn't happening.

Now, Prefixmag is reporting that Love has assembled a new band to perform as Hole, with plans to release a new album in 2010. The trail of links leads back to an article written by British newspaper The Sun on October 16. While they don't cite any sources, they claim that a new Hole single will be released in January of 2010, with a new album slated for the middle of the year.

Of course, the article also contains the sentence, “The widow of Kurt Cobain threw herself into Hole after he shot himself dead in 1994,” so it's difficult to peg how much thought goes into their editorial content.

It's too bad that Love deleted her bat-shit crazy Twitter account earlier this month, otherwise we might have been able to infer some information from all the barely coherent, rambling tweets.

It's easy to take something for granted when it becomes as integral to your cultural identity as an accent or even the changing seasons. For nearly 25 years, the music of Blue Rodeo has held such importance for thousands of Canadians. No other band, not even the Tragically Hip, has been as widely embraced, and in turn has naturally embodied so many sensibilities shared throughout the nation. But just as a clear definition of a Canadian sound remains elusive, so does the sound of Blue Rodeo.... Read More

Put simply, the music business is the commercial interface between musicians and fans. But when the industry lost control of digital music files on the web, the interface broke down.
