The New Year Announce Album Details, Tour!

Fathers of mopey slo-core math rock, The Brothers Kadane, formerly of Bedhead, currently of The New Year, have announced details surrounding the new record from the latter. The record, which is self-titled, will be released on September 9th of this year, and it will come via long-time label home Touch & Go. I couldn’t be more psyched.

Via Touch & Go’s press release:
“Lyrically, these ten songs address the interlocked themes of lost time, frustrated desire, and the need for others. Although musically these may be the band’s most varied songs — for a band that made innovative use of three guitars, almost half the songs here are built around the piano — it is the careful sequence of these songs that brings the story the lyrics tell together. The New Year will be touring the US and Europe as a full band this fall, and the Kadane Brothers are on tour this summer with Bottomless Pit.”
