Nomethod has confirmed the release of the new Mixtapes & Cellmates album for March 21. A release party will be held the very same evening at Landet in Stockholm. Release dates for other territories (EU/Italy) still TBC, but it looks like May for Japan. In related news, the "If there is silence..." EP is officially sold out (though I still have a few copies) and will not be repressed. Instead, Nomethod will rerelease it bundled with their debut EP "Juno" as a new limited edition disc. Look for it in May.

Superfamily's video for the single "The radio has expressed concerns about what you did last night" is now up on myspace: https://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=2011745849
It's not quite as clever as the band's two previous clips, but the song is still great so it's recommended viewing.
