UPDATE: Buke And Gass is working on a new album right now

UPDATE: I totally forgot about that EP of reworked The Forms songs that was announced last year. We heard there are a lot of awesome guests on it. Matt Berninger of little band known as The National is one name that was thrown around. I suppose the EP is being meticulously tweaked in the band’s recording studio. I assume the EP will be released this year.

Oh, and I’m sure no one will notice a new release from LCD Soundsystem.

NJ’s own Titus Andronicus have a new album which they are calling The Monitor. It will be released by XL Recordings on March 9th (the 148th anniversary of the Battle of Hampton Roads). The record is a “sort of” concept album about how the Civil War is not really over (maybe). It features guest appearances from members of Ponytail, Wye Oak, Vivian Girls, and The Hold Steady. The folks at Beggars cut the track “Four Score And Seven” into two parts for a double A side 7” which comes out on Feb 9th.

Downloadable:
Four Score And Seven Part One (beggars mp3)
Four Score And Seven Part Two (beggars mp3)

I used Garageband to put them back together. Listen…
