We just announced a new record last week.  It’s called “Civilian,” and it’s being released in early March of 2011.  Merge Records will take care of it in the US and City Slang in Europe and the UK.  We’re working on Australia and Japan too, I’m very excited to say.  The title track for the record is floating around the internet in MP3 form, so go have a listen.

In related news, we’re gearing up for an absurd amount of touring in 2011.  Some of the dates have already been announced, including about 10 shows in the Northeast with The Decemberists, a short jaunt over to the UK and Europe in January, and a big ol’ headling tour all over the United States, by way of the SXSW festival.

Many thanks to all of the wonderful people who we shared good times with in 2010.  Happy holidays.
