Canadian rock act Broken Social Scene's highly anticipated new album has been christened "Windsurfing Nation" and is scheduled for an Oct. 4 release via Arts & Crafts, Billboard.com has learned. The set is expected to feature such tracks as "Handjobs for the Holidays," "Superconnected," "Shoreline" and "It's All Gonna Break."

The group recently completed a European tour and has a handful of North American shows on tap this summer, including a previously announced July 14 appearance in New York with the reunited Dinosaur Jr.

"Windsurfing Nation" will be the follow-up to 2002's "You Forgot It in People," which has sold 75,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. As previously reported, the group is also slated to participate in a remix album for fellow Canadian outfit Stars' recent Arts & Craft release, "Set Yourself on Fire."

It's hard to beat a song like Handjobs For The Holidays.




Yes, the puns were intentional.

Snore. I'd be happier with a new Metric album and/or a re-release of all their old material including EP's.

I'm pretty excited. Though I do think that Windsurfing Nation is a terrible name for an album.

Yea, agreed on both points. It's probably in my Top 5 of the 2000s. Top 10 for sure.

I liked it when it came out. Has a Ennio Morricone feel to it. But I haven't listened to it in a long time. Just didn't really stick I guess. There are a couple of good tracks but overall there's not enough songs to keep my interest at this point. None of the songs are bad though. If you like post-rock as a spagetti western soundtrack, it's nice.

I tried to find somebody of that sort that I could like that nobody else did - because everybody would adopt his group, and his group would be _it_; someone weird like Captain Beefheart. It's no different now - people trying to outdo ! each other in extremes. There are people who like X, and there are people who say X are wimps; they like Black Flag.
