    Neil Young Finishes 'Amazing' New Crazy Horse Album

    Neil Young has finished work on his next studio album with Crazy Horse, entitled 'Toast'.

    Young said the album was “completely” different to his previous releases with the band and an “amazing listening experience.”

    “It’s a mind blowing record, and I don’t think it’s a commercial record, but it’s great rock and roll, very moody, kind of jazzy,” he told Rolling Stone.

    “All of the live ambiance for everything was all recorded, so the whole thing has got a massive sound about it.”

    Young said he wanted the album, which was originally conceived seven years ago, to be premiered at a large art gallery with speakers in all four corners of the room.

    Asked to describe the album's sound, Young replied: “It’s really dark. It’s got everything that the best Crazy Horse albums have had.

    “It won’t be the most commercial Crazy Horse album ever out, and I don’t know much about that anymore, because the model for that has changed, and time has changed.”

    At present, it's not clear when the album will be released.
