Entombed has revealed that "Serpent saints" will be the title of their forthcoming album, due on June 6, 2006 via their own Threeman Recordings. Rumor has it that ex-drummer Nicke Andersson (The Hellacopters) might contribute to the songwriter and recording now that Uffe is gone, but nothing is confirmed yet.

November's album of the month is Seven Feet Four. Along with The End Will Be Kicks who I posted a track from yesterday, these dudes are Sweden's leading purveyors of noisy, energetic indierock. It's available in both CD and mp3 format at a nice price, so check that shit out, okay?

Speaking of TEWBK, I am proud to announce that the new album is now available for purchase exclusively via IAT in mp3 form! Check it out! I hear from Chalksounds that physical CDs will be on the way in about two weeks, but if you're impatient there's no need to wait.

I won't be moving all of my belongings for another week or so, but I did finally close the deal on my new house and am happy to report that I have now entered the wacky world of home ownership. Yay me! So everyone who is thinking about sending me packages of CDs, records, money, housewarming gifts or whatever, please check the contact page for my new address. Thanks!
