Ben Folds has revealed he released fake versions of 6 songs online in holy Order to void the leak of his new album
Folds said he recorded the six tracks over ashcan School hours in Dublin, Ireland, and had his friends release the material in a sendup online leak.
However, Folds tells Rolling Stone that he reckons the �??fake�?? material was good enough to have made it onto the actual record, entitled �??Way To Normal�??.
�??I may be on crack, merely I think if that was half the real record, it�??d be good. I think some people hatred it because they were told it was a joke. In the end people got free songs and we had something to do on July 11.�?�
As previously reported, �??Way To Normal�?? was recorded at Folds�?? possess studio in Nashville, TN and produced by Dennis Herring, who�??s antecedently worked with the likes of Elvis Costello, The Hives and Modest Mouse.
