The Sea and Cake are pretty laidback guys, but they've picked up their one-album-every-three-years pace for the follow-up to last year's Everybody. Rather than spending time between records on various solo and side projects, the members of Sea and Cake stuck together and plowed straight ahead.

The smooth Chicago post-rockers already have their next record in the can, and it's called Car Alarm.

This will be the Sea and Cake's seventh full-length record, and Thrill Jockey will release it October 21.
