Pitchfork

For those who weren't sufficiently smitten the first time around, and for those whose love for live Love Is All has gone unrequited, North Americans finally have a second chance at sweet amore: the noise-pop notables return to the States and Canada this autumn for some heartwarming touring action.

The band behind the Pitchfork-approved LP Nine Times That Same Song will hit up all those groovy cities your friends are moving to, including New York, San Francisco, Vancouver, and more. Denizens of P4k's hometown of Chicago, meanwhile, must remain Love Is All-lorn for the time being. Phooey.

And just what, you ask, beckoned these enthusiastic Swedes yonder? Why, a release of course-- but don't inflate yr hopes too much, mister. Unless you live in Iowa or something: What's Your Rupture? Records will re-release Nine Times That Same Song on October 17. No new tracks or anything, but v. 2.0 will see wider distribution. Which means it might just turn up at the local record shop in some corn-infested state near you.

Your lovely pals also have new UK single on the way. "Make Out Fall Out Make Up" arrives October 2 via Parlophone (in CD and 7" formats) and features non-album B-sides "Kiss Kiss Kiss" and "Lost Thrills".
