| Adam Lambert Calls New Album 'Existential Pop'James Montgomery - Quote :
In a new interview with The Advocate, 'Idol' alum says his new sound will meld Nine Inch Nails with George Michael.
Adam Lambert has made no bones about the fact that the follow-up to his post-"American Idol" bow, For Your Entertainment, would be his kind of album, telling MTV News earlier this year: "It's really exciting, because I think I'm making my dream album. I know that sounds a bit clichéd, but I'm making exactly what I want to listen to."
In the cover story of November's The Advocate, he explains just what he's been working on all these months, and it sounds like he's truly making his bid for "Idol" independence, describing his new songs as "Nine Inch Nails meets George Michael."
"I know that's a weird mash-up, but that's what it feels like," Lambert said. "No matter what the genre is, it's all very personal, even on upbeat, fun tracks. The last album was a little bit more of a fantasy escape ... even my image for that last album felt very theatrical and kind of over-the-top and intentionally tacky. I get a kick out of making artistic statements that are kind of ridiculous."
And in the process of making those songs, he's also pulling the curtain back on his personal life, letting his fans get a peek at the real Lambert behind all the leather. Is Adam Lambert Worth Your Savings Account?

Hit up your parents, your boss, your bank, etc. as this is a one of a kind opportunity. This item should reap high bids and besides, what else are you going to do with the money? College? Vacation? Braces for your children? Screw that. This is Adam Lambert for glittery's sake! Adam Lambert: I’m more than just gay!Adam with Geoff Field during an Australian promo tour - Quote :
God I love Adam Lambert, he’s just putting the finishing touches to his new album and has told journalists he doesn’t want to be known just as a ‘gay artist’.
While he has no problem with people knowing he’s gay, he doesn’t want to be known as Adam “the gay singer”. That’s something I can understand!
The former American Idol contestant says he has a lot of straight female fans and has no problems doing video shoots with hot girls or boys, and that’s a very brave statement to make in a country where conservative Christians can be pretty fierce in their opposition to anyone that dares to admit they are gay.
Sure there’s Ellen and a few other brave souls, but there are also organisations like the moral majority and the West Boro Baptist church that spew hate towards homosexuals.
Hopefully in another 10 years this won’t even be an issue thanks to people like Adam. Adam says in 15 years he wants to be known for his music, not because of his sexuality.
I say more power to Adam Lambert, a man that makes so much sense on so many levels.
