Sunset Rubdown unveils new album info

Loads of new info and sounds pertaining to Sunset Rubdown’s next album have emerged, each one presented here for you to cherish and revisit -- just as one shuffles and re-shuffles through an old cigar box filled with marbles, special happy meal toys and loose bits of string, kept under the bedside table.

Item one, the title: Random Spirit Lover

Item two, the release date: October

Item three, the record label: Jagjaguwar

Item four, general band information: Unlike 2005’s Snake's Got A Leg and very much like 2006’s Shut Up I Am Dreaming, the new release features people besides animal band fanatic Spencer Krug of Wolf Parade, Frog Eyes and Swan Lake.
