There's the record itself, which comes out via French Kiss tomorrow, September 18 in the U.S. and Wichita Recordings in the UK on October 1.
Then there are the shows, several of which are completely new
since our last report. Thus, at least a few non-New York City-dwelling
North Americans will get to partake of their wild live show, though New
Yorkers still have the band to themselves for three dates, including
their gig opening for the Arcade Fire and LCD Soundsystem (never heard of 'em).
Finally, there's that video contest for "The Equestrian", which ends tomorrow (September 18 for the forgetful types). In addition to the "key of bunny" entry that made it into Forkcast, there have been fan-made videos with actual horses, with LSF masks, with Britney Spears' VMA performance, and played on the incredibly technical instrument known as "inflatable woman."
And here we thought there could be nothing more frightening and ridiculous than Tim Harrington's stage presence. [MORE...]
Arcade Fire/LCD Soundsystem Tour Kicks Off Tonight
I shall miss thee, crudely Photoshopped collage we've used for every story about this tour
Sound the trumpets, spark the fireworks, and bow before the deities assembled in front of you: the second comingArcade Fire/LCD Soundsystem joint tour is finally upon us. Yes, some mild sarcasm/hyperbole is involved in this announcement. But, still, you know, wowzers!
Just in case you've missed our gajillion news items directly related to the tour (or at least as many references we've made to it otherwise), James Murphy's LCD Soundsystem and the Butler clan's Arcade Fire will join up for an all-too-brief ten-date run, keeping the tour bus running between tonight's appearance at Red Rocks in Colorado and October 6 at New York's Randall's Island. And they'll be peddling their split 7" all the while.
Both bands have other dates besides, but that's not really what matters right now. What matters is this: ARCADE FIRE LCD OMG OMG!!!
So, will they meet up onstage as James Murphy neither confirmed or denied in our interview with him last week? Will the all-too-convenient end of LCD's UK dates and the beginning of Arcade Fire's lead to yet another announcement? Can Murphy's "Black Mirror" remix possibly be as good as it seems in theory? Has anything this monumental ever before happened in the history of music? No. No, absolutely not. [MORE...]
Buck 65 Announces Fall Tour Dates
Having already explained his Situation to Pitchfork in a recent interview, Buck 65 will get even more expository on his just-announced U.S. tour in support of the album.Situation comes out via Sage Francis' Strange Famous Records on October 30, which just so happens to be the same date as the kickoff of Buck's tour. Fittingly, his first two shows-- in Providence and Boston-- will serve as album release parties, and Francis will join him on both dates.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Buck has a handful of (mostly festival. mostly overseas) shows before then. The next one is in Oxford, England on September 22. [MORE...]

Bergen photos by Eirik Lande
Oslo photos by Sigurd Fandango
As night fell over Norway this weekend, Jens Lekman came out to play. First, joining a slew of local artists, Jens headlined Bergen's Phonofestivalen, before heading east to Oslo's John Dee club. Pitchfork photographers Eirik Lande and Sigurd Fandango were stationed on separate sides of the country, ready to grab Jens as he oh so silently came marching through.
According to Lekman's Scandinavian label Service, his fantastic new album Night Falls Over Kortedala hit number one on the Swedish album chart in its debut week. Congratulations! Night Falls hits our shores October 9 courtesy of Secretly Canadian. (Pre-orderers get a special treat.)
Dates for Lekman's colossal fall tour and more photos below.

Ghostface, Trail of Dead Play Adult Swim College Tours
Not together, sadly
In a move roughly as unsurprising as RZA soundtracking a samurai cartoon, Ghostface Killah-- whose persona primarily centers around Marvel Comics characters-- is heading out on a tour sponsored by a TV channel that only plays cartoons. Adult Swim is sending Ghostface on a trek to several college campuses this October, and all of the shows are free.
Ghostface will be joined on the trek by long-lost Dungeon Family member Witchdoctor, whose album Diary of an American Witchdoctor drops October 23 on Adult Swim's Williams Street label. Love them tie-ins!
We'd imagine an ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead cartoon to resemble that 300 movie, or any number of bloody animes. Or, I guess, "Metalocalypse", the Adult Swim program with which the terrifying Texans are now intertwined. Like Ghostface, Trail of Dead will go forth on an Adult Swim-sponsored college trek of their own, supported by Dethklok, the fourth-wall-eradicating metal band from "Metalocalypse". Dethklok will issue Metalocalypse: Dethklok The Dethalbum, their "debut" album, on Williams Street on September 25. Their joint tour will kick off October 29, though dates for that leg have yet to be announced.
To clarify: There will be no Ghostface/Trail of Dead dates, much as you might want that. Ghostface also has a whole bunch of non-Adult Swim, non-college, non-free shows scheduled throughout the fall.
Oh, and while we're on the subject of collaborations, in the press release for this thing, there's mention of the time that Ghost and Adult Swim fave MF Doom came together for a "not-yet-released album". Which reminds us: Anybody know when that album's gonna come out? Because, you know, it sounds like it might be pretty good. Though perhaps not as good as this. [MORE...]
Sea and Cake's Sam Prekop Issues CD/Photo Book
Mommy, what's a book?
PRESSPOP will publish Photographs on November 27, but there will be a pre-release at the New York Art Book Fair, which takes place September 28-30. On September 29, Prekop will visit the fair to sign early copies of the book.
As you likely know, the Sea and Cake just kicked off a tour, and they have added a string of European dates since our last report. [MORE...]
SMD, Diplo, Switch, Cocteau Twin Do Decibel Festival
Decibel Festival: fun to say three times fast, sure, but almost certainly even better to attend (and ain't no law says you can't do both).Simian Mobile Disco, Diplo, and Switch top a huge lineup of electronic/ambient/dance-minded acts, splayed over four Seattle days and nights later this month at various Jet City locales. Biosphere, Guns'n'Bombs, Harold Budd and former Cocteau Twin Robin Guthrie, Kate Simko, Lusine, Kill Memory Crash, Motor, Strategy, Truckasaurus, Rafael Anton Irisarri, and Pitchfork contributor Philip Sherburne, among others, will all contribute to the delightful din, which'll engulf the town September 20-23.
Polyphonic Spree Take the Cult on the Road
Not the band The Cult. That would be weird.
Bring those robes to the cleaners and have Ma mend the hems on your Fragile Army uniform-- it's time for a Polyphonic Spree tour!
Still two-dozen-odd members strong-- and fresh off an unlikely haute couture conquest-- the Spree will take to the streets beginning October 12 in Atlanta. Then it's all sunshine and smiles and good vibes through November 10, when the gleeful bunch lands at the Talleyrand Music Festival in Jacksonville, Florida.
We're so damn happy we can't even think of something snarky to say about this. [MORE...]
Photos: Animal Collective [Portland, OR; 09/16/07]
Photos by Nilina Mason-CampbellAnimal Collective migrated to Portland's Roseland Theater last night to kick out the Strawberry Jams, much to the delight of freaks and geeks alike. The fearsome foursome-- appearing here as a, um, toothsome threesome-- has just begun a continent-spanning tour in support of its Best New Music-earning new disc on Domino. They land in San Francisco tonight, grace national television for the first time on October 5, and skip the pond in mid-October. Catch dates-- including recently-added Amsterdam and Lyon gigs-- and more photos below.

Common and Q-Tip Tour Together
Possibly form a group together
Common and Q-Tip will herald the release of the B-Ball Zombie War compilation (on which Q-Tip appears) with a tour together, sponsored by 2K Sports. Joining them will be Stones Throw MC and fellow Zombie contributor Percee P, who just released his long-awaited debut LP.
Tip has a couple long-awaited, oft-postponed albums in the works; right now, The Renaissance is due in "early 2008" according to a press release. And in a recent interview with XXLMag.com, he announced that he and Common have formed a group together called the Standard. (These guys are probably pissed.)
The two have not, however, started recording together yet, and the remaining details remain unclear, except that Q-Tip will handle most of the production and that a few tracks may feature Kanye West.
In addition to the joint tour, Common has a handful of dates on his own. He's also in the movie American Gangster
with Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington coming out soon, and is filming Wanted with
Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman and The Night Watchman with Keanu Reaves
and Forest Whitaker.
As previously reported, Stones Throw will release B-Ball Zombie War on October 2. [MORE...]
Bloc Party, Of Montreal, Deerhoof Hit Iceland Airwaves
So do !!!, Grizzly Bear, Bonde do Role, Prinzhorn Dance School, Amiina, Múm
Bonde do Role are a brave, brave bunch. Not that the bands that make up the rest of the lineup for this October's Iceland Airwaves festival aren't brimming over with gumption, but going from their steamy homeland of Brazil to chilly Reykjavik takes a special kind of dedication. And a special kind of parka. A big one.
Bonde will join a bundle of their bundled-up brethren for the Iceland Airwaves festival October 17-21 all over downtown Reykjavik. Bloc Party, Grizzly Bear, Of Montreal (expect Mr. Barnes in specially designed fur-line assless chaps for the occasion), !!!, Deerhoof, Trentemøller, Annuals, Buck 65, Loney Dear, Ra Ra Riot, Jenny Wilson, Best Fwends, Chromeo, Late of the Pier, Lali Puna, Heavy Trash, Ms. John Soda, the Duke Spirit, Prinzhorn Dance School, Smoosh, the Teenagers, and many, many, more will don their duckfeathers and head into the streets for the five-day fest.
Natives Amiina, Múm, Benni Hemm Hemm, GusGus, and Ghostigital join a massive list of Icelandic natives walking around in t-shirts and looking smug. The full lineup-- still not complete just yet-- and venue information is available at the festival's website.
Not quite ready to make the trek to Reykjavik? Drop a few ice cubes in the tub and fire up the iTunes, as the festival (and the Icelandic Music Export label) will offer an accompanying compilation of Icelandic artists-- including múm, Ghostigital, Benni Hemm Hemm, Seabear, Bang Gang and others-- for download in late September. The tracklist for the collection is available after the jump. [MORE...]
