also, probably won't.

I saw him open for Elvis Perkins at the beginning of the month. So good.

Downloaded it from Dalen and I love it. It's released now, though? I thought it was coming out in February.

You're right---it hasn't been officially released yet. I guess it's now an early front-runner for my '08 shmoo poll.

Cool. I was afraid I had missed out for my '07 lists.

Hmmm. It made Pitchfork's top 50 of '07 as a "self-released" album. I guess it's back in the running.

It was definitely officially released in 2007. Jagjaguwar plans on a re-release and probably a press surge in 2008.

Really liking this album. Definitely can hear the TVOTR vox, but that's nothing to be concerned with really. Gentle, and meandering. Nice morning album for sure.
