Aagoo will issue Au's Verbs on CD and vinyl come June 24. Boasting contributions from members of Yellow Swans, Parenthetical Girls, and other PDX luminaries, the set was recorded over three days at the city's Type Foundry studios and subsequently "finished" by Wyland for release. And here we are!
Verbs will be preceded on May 20 by a 7" single for the album's recently Forkcasted "RR vs. D". And between Verbs and that upcoming No Age disc, we can form complete sentences! Sweet!
As for where Au will be, well, they'll be a bunch of places along the West Coast in the coming weeks, joined at many of these places by Parenthetical Girls. [MORE...]
Nachtmystium Plan New Album, EP, Live Excursion
Chicago black metal berserkers Nachtmystium are all set to unleash their fourth official studio album, the punningly titled Assassins: Black Meddle Part I. Who knew these guys had a sense of humor?The band will issue Assassins in North America on June 10 via Century Media and in Europe on June 23 via Candlelight Records.
Because they apparently had more doomy tunes on hand than they knew what to do with, Nachtmystium have an EP of five songs not featured on Assassins coming out next week. On April 22, they'll release the Worldfall EP to brick-and-mortar stores, though it's already available online through CM Distro and iTunes.
Outside of the studio, Nachtmystium have two straight weeks of European shows in May. [MORE...]
Cajun Dance Party Dish Out Debut LP on XL
Reveal plans to have the follow-up out this year too!
The Colourful Life contains CDP's previous limited-edition singles "The Next Untouchable" and "Amylase", plus seven more tracks. One of those, "The Race", arrives in single form a week before the album on April 21.
Details surrounding CDP's next album are much more vague. What we know is that they're writing and recording it now, and they'll do their darnedest to get it out this year. Their dedication to recording is manifest in their almost bare tour schedule, which consists of a handful of dates in July. [MORE...]
David Byrne and Brian Eno Working Together Again
Almost three decades since Brian Eno and David Byrne worked together on Talking Heads records, and 27 years after the original release of My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, the pair are collaborating together again.After performing with Paul Simon April 9 at a Brooklyn Academy of Music event, Byrne told NME.com his current plans include "finishing up a record with Brian Eno, a musician that I worked with 30 years ago. We did a record together of songs, and that'll come out." He added, "I'm also working on a collaboration with Fatboy Slim, also songs. I don't know when that'll be done, but sometime."
Byrne expounded upon the new collaboration with Eno to the New York Daily News (via the Daily Swarm): "Brian had written a lot of music but needed some words, which I know how to do. What's it sound like? Electronic gospel. That's all I'm saying."
The Daily Swarm reports that the Byrne/Eno album will come out via Nonesuch before the end of 2008. Also, a joint U.S. tour with a setlist of "at least 40% Eno-era Talking Heads material" is in the works.
For now, the only known show from either artist is Byrne's appearance at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in September. Meanwhile, Byrne is busy worrying about the mortgage crisis and Eno is working with U2. Eno also helped out Coldplay on their forthcoming album.
Cat Power Hurts Vocal Cords, Postpones Dates
Photo by Jana GreenTomorrow may be Record Store Day, but today is Indie Rock Goddess Injury Day, or something. First it was Neko Case, whose ankle suffered a nasty boo-boo, forcing her to opt out of the current New Pornographers tour.
Now it's Cat Power, who had to cancel a gig last night (April 17) in Tempe, Arizona and six more upcoming engagements. The reason? Chan Marshall has damaged her vocal chords, and her doctor has ordered her to lay off the singing thing for a couple weeks. Oh no!
According to Matador, Chan's doctor will reassess her vocal cord situation after this little time-out and decide whether she needs to rest further. There are also plans afoot to reschedule the cancelled dates for later this year. Phew.
You'll find what's still on for now and what's not below. Thanks to reader Kevin Murphy for the tip, and feel better soon, Chan! [MORE...]
Slaraffenland, Efterklang Do Joint North American Tour
Parades and a Private Cinema? This Efterklang and Slaraffenland tour sounds pretty nice already! It's a match made in post-rock heaven-- or simply Copenhagen, Denmark, the hometown of both bands in question.The joint tour will take our intrepid Danes on a month-long journey through North America, beginning May 6 in Denver. For Efterklang, it's a very special occasion: their very first U.S. tour. Each band has a handful of gigs outside the transatlantic voyage too, with Efterklang even playing a show on a ferry out on the open sea.
And speaking of the sea, Lost Sailor is the debut EP from Efterklang live band member Anna Brømsted, aka Our Broken Garden. She'll release it in the UK April 28 via Bella Union. [MORE...]
White Rabbits Tour With Miles Benjamin Anthony...
...Robinson
Now these socially active artists are set to do a little more mingling-- with each other! Miles and the Rabbits will team up for a tour, taking them across the U.S. in late May and early June. First those Rabbits must wrap their sizable chunk of European dates, while Robinson does a pair of NYC shows.
Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson comes out July 1 on Say Hey Records. White Rabbits plan to release their Fort Nightly follow-up and TBD debut early next year. [MORE...]

Popular summer event now includes 100% more Britt Daniel and Tim Harrington
The 2008 Pitchfork Music Festival is coming to Chicago's Union Park from July 18-20. We've already had the pleasure of announcing 26 of the artists who will perform, including Public Enemy doing the classic It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, Mission of Burma playing their post-punk masterpiece Vs., Animal Collective, Dinosaur Jr., Spiritualized, Jarvis Cocker of Pulp, Ghostface and Raekwon of the Wu-Tang Clan, and Vampire Weekend-- a lineup that we hope sent you scrambling to secure tickets.
Well, what if we told you that Spoon, Les Savy Fav, and the Dodos will also be appearing? And, what's more, that's not a hypothetical...Spoon, Les Savy Fav, and the Dodos actually are appearing at the festival.

Thalia Zedek Expands Backing Band for New Album
Photo by Damon VrettosCould it be that Thalia Zedek is collecting bands? Hey, better her than Travis Barker or somebody!
The onetime member of Come, Live Skull, White Women, Uzi, and Dangerous Birds has forged yet another musical unit for her Liars and Prayers LP, due April 22 on Thrill Jockey.
Consisting of Zedek's recent touring unit of Daniel Coughlin and David Michael Curry, and further bolstered by Winston Braman and Mel Lederman, the new configuration is said to give Zedek's tunes plenty of opportunity to run the emotional gamut. And, seeing as this is a Thalia Zedek record, that's some heavy shit, man.
The newly expanded crew has a date late next month in Cambridge, Massachusetts, but Thalia and company won't get going proper-like until June. [MORE...]
Neil Hamburger Sings Country Winners on Tour
With the Drag City release of his Sings Country Winners album on April 22, Neil Hamburger will make the transition from sadistically awkward stand-up comic to full-blown (albeit humorous) country western crooner. True to its title, the record consists of honest-to-goodness honky tonkin' music.To complete the metamorphosis, Hamburger will play a series of West Coast shows in May and June where he'll be joined by the band that plays on the record. Those players include Rachel Haden, Prairie Prince, Dave Gleason, Atom Ellis, and Joe Goldmark, and between them, they've worked with the likes of George Harrison, John Fogerty, Weezer, Link Wray, and...the New Cars. Well, you win some, you lose some.
Hamburger also has two solo shows coming up on the East Coast April 19 and 20. The latter is also the date of Sings Country Winners listening parties at Chicago's Rainbo Club and NYC's Knitting Factory. [MORE...]
Neko Case Hurts Foot, Leaves New Pornographers Tour
Photo by Kathryn Yu
Even the toughest of Challengers face insurmountable obstacles on the road. Such is the case with the New Pornographers, who have suffered the loss of über-talented vocalist Neko Case from the rest of their tour with Okkervil River.
According to a missive from the band itself, "Neko had a really bad fall in Washington, DC, which resulted in a fractured ankle (which also did some damage to her ligaments), and will be leaving the tour today. She was really trying to be a trooper and stayed on as long as she could through Richmond and Athens, but it has gotten to the point where she must return home to have her ankle taken care of and to recuperate. She's very upset about having to leave. It's been super fun having her on tour and around again, but she just had to go to avoid doing some real permanent damage to herself.
"We hope that you understand, Nashville, St. Louis, Chicago, Madison, and Cleveland."
The sad news aside (get better Neko!), the New Pornographers still have a summer scattered with festivals after they wrap up the current tour. And remember, a brand new song by Case and head Porno Carl Newman is featured on the compilation CD accompanying the latest issue of ESOPUS. [MORE...]
Two Pipettes Enter, Two Pipettes Leave
The campaign to become the indie pop Menudo starts now
As they prepare to record the follow-up to their 2006 debut We Are the Pipettes, the lovable, polka-dotted popsters in the Pipettes are experiencing personnel changes.
According to a press release and a note on their website, "The Pipettes have two new members, Ani and Anna... This means that RiotBecki and Rosay have left to pursue other musical pursuits (which will be brilliant when they emerge). We wish them all the best, we're all still great friends, and news on their pursuits will be closely supported by us.
"People may be confused by such a drastic change in line-up, but please rest assured-- if we were to be an imitation of ourselves we would stop. Plus the Pipettes has more members come and go than major labels have A&R men, it's just another day in the office for us (plus we've got to go one better than Sugababes). [British pop tarts the Sugababes have a notoriously fluctuating lineup-- Ed.]
"We refer you to the manifesto on our website for a more in-depth explanation on the functioning of the band; this was the natural step to take. For a more in-depth series of answers, we direct you to the prepared video here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU."
Ah...well played, girls.
However, the news is still true, and the new Pipettes are currently recording demos of new songs with a hope to record their sophomore album this summer.
Do you have a news tip for us? Anything crazy happen at a show you attended recently? Do you have inside info on the bands we cover? Is one of your favorite artists (that's not somebody you know personally) releasing a new record you'd like to see covered? You will remain completely anonymous, unless we are given your express permission to reveal your identity. (Please note that publicists, managers, booking agents, and other artist representatives are generally exempt from this rule, but will also be granted anonymity if requested.)
