NEWS UPDATE MAY 2011

Hello,

We hope that you are doing well and enjoying the spring so far. We are currently on tour in Europe and wanted to quickly update you regarding a few things.


FIRST...

Our new full-length album, titled The Organ Hearts, is officially released on May 13 via Expect Candy. It will be available on CD + Digital (no vinyl plans as of right now, sorry!), and you can pre-order it HERE. All pre-orders include a free download of a new 5-song EP which will be released this summer. There are 2 weeks left to do this, so hurry up and place your order by May 13 if you'd like some free music in addition to the new record! (Also available on iTunes HERE).

The first single, Tusk, is available for purchase now via Expect Candy's Bandcamp page HERE. This includes a remix of the song by Helios (which is absolutely fabulous), and you can stream both tracks on Bandcamp now. The music video will be released in the coming weeks as well.

Don't forget to also check out our recent mini-album, Nostalgia For The Absolute, HERE. It is available only as a digital download except for a few remaining physical copies at upcoming shows. If you've downloaded this record without paying AND you liked what you heard, please consider purchasing it directly from us---it's the only way that we can continue making music.


SECOND...

The vinyl editions of Cinematique and From The Inland Sea are still available for purchase online via Ericrock. There are still some combo packs available for Cinematique (white + black LPs), as well as some colored LPs for From The Inland Sea. We do still have copies of both releases available at shows, but please note that we no longer have any Cinematique white LPs with us.

If you wish to make a purchase from our Big Cartel online shop, please note that we will not be able to ship your item(s) until early July when we return home from tour. If you wish to purchase downloads, we encourage you to use our Bandcamp page, which contains most of our releases in almost any format.


THIRD...

Finally, we want to thank everyone that's come to one (or more) of our shows so far. It's been really a pleasure playing for all of you, and we very much appreciate the support. We still have 2 months of touring left ahead of us in support of our new record(s), so please check our tour page HERE for all upcoming shows. You can also RSVP on Facebook HERE. Asian dates in June and Canadian dates in early July will be announced this week, so please stay tuned for that as well.

There are several live videos from recent shows that you can check out if you're interested. Here's a quick list:
