Quote:
Talking to Pitchfork last month, Dodos singer/guitarist Meric Long had this to say about the band's forthcoming album: "We have a whole new element in all the new songs right now-- an electric vibraphone. That's what's really standing out. It was something I wanted to incorporate a while ago when I heard about this company that made pick ups for vibraphones so you can actually plug it in and really fuck up the sound while retaining that organic element."

It's true; the strummy, stompy San Francisco duo are now a trio, with electric vibraphonist Keaton Snyder on board. And now we can tell you that the Dodos' third LP, the scarily titled Time to Die, is due September 15 from Frenchkiss. The band recorded Time to Die with Fleet Foxes/Shins producer Phil Ek, and according to Long, "This album sounds more like a band."-Pitchfork

I got it from Indie Passion last night. It's pretty good, but there are a couple poor tracks on it.

Six songs in, and I think it's really good. Especially like this song, "Two Medicines".
