Good news as I am a big fan of their first. I've been hoping they would come out with something soon.

Rain Falls for Wind and Come to This were two of my favorite songs of 03".

I loved Lovers, I was so pissed when I missed them and My Morning Jacket play in Omaha.

Cool. Was wondering when that was coming out. There's been stories round for ages saying Luke Steele was working on a new one.

Wonder who else he's got on this album? Surely there's no one else left in the Perth music scene who hasn't been in the Sleepies at some stage
