Our Lady Peace is currently in the studio finishing up their not-yet-titled 8th studio album with co-producer Jason Lader. According to a recent tweet from drummer Jeremy Taggart, the album is expected to be released sometime before April, 2012.

Inspired by 2010's Clumsy/Spiritual Machines tour, the band has set out to push the limits of their creativity.

"The theme for this record so far is about change." - Raine Maida

"The concept in the recording and writing of this record: to be more creative, to be less concerned about how this record is going to be heard, and where it's going to be heard, and whether radio will like this record. We're really just setting out to make a record that we want to listen to." - Duncan Coutts

The song "Heavyweight" has been picked for first single. A clip can be heard at ourladypeace.com and the full song is coming soon.

The band has worked on over 20 songs during the recording sessions for the new album. The final tracklist has not been announced, but many song titles have been mentioned and we expect many to make the cut:
