has anyone heard this full-length album? i see that Scissorkick has a post with a new song of theirs, Immaculate Heart II but other than that i'd heard nothing about a new album. Any other fans?

yes--big time. thanks for the info.

i know they've signed to arts & crafts

Sweet, I'm a big fan, and I didn't see that Pitchfork story. Arts & Crafts should be good for them.

I also didn't know about the new cd. I saw they have scheduled some tour dates, and were talking about a new cd, but Sept 20 for the release of Set Free is great. It's not too far off. (I hate it when bands give release dates 6+ months in advance.)

Edit: I have that Ouch! 5 disc that came out last year which has 2 of the new tracks on it. I'm not sure if they are the final mixes or not.

I think one of the tracks on the Ouch! disc is the same as on the album. The interview on the Ouch! site with A. Kenney was very good as well. I'l check out Immaculate Heart II after I get home tonight - thanks for the info!

I am looking forward to this! AmAnSet = best driving in the rain music EVER.

Good starting point ?

Probably Know by Heart, but Promise of Love really grew on me, as well.

what FT said.

I dunno, I think I'd start with From Our Living Room To Yours
