Oh - I am super-anticipating the new Avalanches record, if they finally put it out instead of busting out singles and mixes. I want to see what "so party you will die" sounds like.

What worries me a bit about it was that I read somewhere (I think it may have been the Pitchfork interview) that they scrapped a bunch of songs they'd been playing for awhile and just wrote a whole bunch of new ones within a couple weeks. I mean, they'd been playing the songs on Apologies for about a year before they recorded them. Ah well. I have faith in Wolf Parade - if anyone can pull that off, they can.
I read somewhere though that they had their first gig setup as aband before they even had played any songs together as a group. I'm sure they will be fine. Sometimes spontenaity is an essential trait in song writting. If they think too much about it, it all starts to feel samey...
Any word on when the new Wolf Parade will be released?

People have talked about MMJ and whether they are coming out with a new album. I remember hearing that they skipped a music festival several months ago (can't remember the name of it) in order to start recording the new album, so I have to assume it will be released in '08.
