WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

thats rad!!!!! once again i say that im proud of the band!!!!

That's interesting that a band located in the United States would get signed up to a not-so-big UK label... But then again, it's an interesting band so :-D, haha.. But I gotta say I love that they've played in Joshua Tree [next town over], and also that they are playing in Pioneertown in October. Love the local showings!

Looks like this is going to be the album cover. Or maybe the UK version of the CD.........??........

we are super stoked about the rough trade signing for the UK/European deal. they have some great bands such as arcade fire, jenny lewis, albert hammond jr., etc.... it seemed like a great fit for the band and they are really gonna be pushing us out there

here in the u.s., vagrant records has been great in helping us set up our community music label.

honestly, everyone involved with this project has been amazing and inspiring, from our management to the band to the booking agency to our music publisher!

gonna be a fun year!

Oh damn, I never even checked out the roster. I had no idea Arcade Fire is signed to them too. I guess I was a tad bit premature in saying that they aren't too well known. Haha. Anyways, I'm most certainly looking forward to this cd, and 3 tours coming up... Gonna be a fun year indeed. :-)

Holy crap this is exciting.
