Stardom Road for Marc Almond

Marc Almond's latest CD, Stardom Road, was released yesterday (June 4). The recording is the former Soft Cell vocalist's first since his near-fatal motorcycle crash in October 2004, and contains covers of tunes by (among others) Frank Sinatra, David Bowie, and Bobby Darin. Almond, who rarely gives interviews, talked to Paul Lester of the U.K.'s Times Online about the new album, depression, and fame in this article.

Additional Marc Almond info can be found on his MySpace Page, and on his official website.
