Keane's Tim Rice-Oxley By John Earls - Nearing the end of touring Under The Iron Sea, Keane have festival shows at Knowsley Hall, Fflam and Live Earth before their own huge show at London O2 on July 21. In the first of a two part interview with keyboardist Tim Rice-Oxley, the trio reveal plans for their future... How are the new songs coming along? We're getting there. There's four or five we're really confident about. How do the five winning songs sound? Quite a variety, which is why it's hard to say too much. It's very early days. Some take a direct line from Under The Iron Sea, a song like Leaving So Soon. The other side of the songs is newer. One is very, very different. It's more of a Kanye West vibe. It's fantastic, it's got some great stuff in it, a very exciting piece of music. The name of it keeps changing. You could call it Keanye West. Ha! Exactly! What do you want from your next album? We need to reconcile these new ideas. We want to make a record that takes our music, and hopefully our genre, forward without making a mockery of instincts. This sounds like a bleak comment, but I'm bored s***less of indie. The vibe from meeting Kanye or Pharrell - taking influences from anywhere, throwing it into a pot and whatever works stays - is what's missing from indie, certainly on this side of the Atlantic. How soon do you know if a song is good? I normally get a feeling when I'm writing. I read Rufus Wainwright saying: "If I start crying when I write a song, I know it's good." That's typical Rufus, the operatic approach, but there's some truth to it. On a good day, some string of notes will come together and give you a little shiver. You've found a thread to follow and, if you can turn it into a song, they're the great ones. Tom's writing songs for the first time since the band's earliest days... Yes, he's writing quite a bit. But, more importantly, we're trying to pool our resources creatively. It's not the basic writing, it's getting in a room, taking a basic form and having input. Richard and Tom throw ideas at songs. We've had a couple of weeks of doing that, and they sound great. We're finding things each of us are good at, which is why we formed the band. What are your individiual strengths? I'm quite good at the basic songs, but Tom puts twists on melodies and comes up with ideas that I would never think of. They're beautiful twists. It's really exciting, it stops us falling into the same old pattern. Did your writing need that challenge? Yeah, I think so. That, and taking influences from different places. I'm determined to push this band into different places.
