Before they finish the studio album follow-up to 2006's Standing in the Way of Control, late-blooming dance punks the Gossip will release a document of their sweat-soaked live antics.

Titled Gossip: Live in Liverpool, the CD/DVD contains footage from a show on July 9, 2007 in, yes, Liverpool, England. The CD and the DVD each feature a slightly different tracklist (though both include the band's covers of Wham!'s "Careless Whisper" and Aaliyah's "Are You That Somebody?"). The DVD was filmed by director Lance Bangs (Pavement, Sonic Youth, Kanye West, R.E.M., Mike Watt).

Columbia Records/Music With a Twist will release Gossip: Live in Liverpool on April 15.

UPDATE: Kill Rock Stars will release the vinyl version of the album on May 6. It will be a gatefold with a poster, and it will also come with the DVD.

Of course, the Gossip also have a handful of flesh-and-blood live dates in the next couple of months.
