Momofuku


Rolling Stone reports:



Elvis Costello’s new album Momofuku will hit shelves April 22nd. One catch, though: the album will only be released on vinyl, which will be accompanied by a voucher for a digital download. No other details — like a tracklist, a producer or what the album title means — were announced.

1. Momofuku means "lucky peach".

2. Momofuku is also the name of a number of restaurants in New York City. Possible trademark issue? Consider McDonald's cases... [Eds. **UPDATE** 3/24/08 -- Trademark issue averted; owner of Momofuku restaurants is mind blown by the album title...in a good way!]
