The Verve's new record in out in August

We just received a two line email from a publicist. Here's what it says.

The Verve Will Release New Record August 19th
(Yes, I do mean the legendary band)

We trust this publicist, so we feel inclined to believe the August 19 US release date is fact. The British band have been working on a new album and played the Coachella Festival in California in April. The band also have a series of festival gigs coming up in the UK including a headlining set at Glastonbury.

A few other sites are reporting August 19 as the release date as well. We'll let you know when we know more.
