Having just embarked on their US tour, The Faint announce their 12” featuring four new songs and sold exclusively on the road. The 12” consists of The Faint's first new songs since 2008's Fasciinatiion. To celebrate, the band is sharing the track “Evil Voices,” which you can grab and share via the widget below. The Faint are playing “Evil Voices” on this tour along with other new songs featured on the 12”. The 45RPM 12” was recorded in Enamel, the band's Omaha studio and mixed with Mike Mogis, Bright Eyes member and long-time Faint collaborator. The band has been writing and recording new music after reconvening this summer and are looking forward to releasing more music in 2013.
On November 19th, Saddle Creek is also reissuing The Faint’s third album, 2001’s Danse Macabre. The remastered release, which features six bonus tracks from the era as well as an extensive booklet, will be available on CD in a triple-disc format with a DVD, and on double vinyl that also includes the CDs and DVD. Additionally, the DVD will include archival video footage from the band, live projection videos from that era's tour dates, the "Agenda Suicide" music video (directed by MK12), some live footage, and more. Copies of the physical album will be limited to 5,000 for the 2xCD/DVD package and 3,000 for the 2xLP/2xCD/DVD package.
The reissue is supported by the tour, which kicked off last week. During these shows, the group will performing Danse Macabre in its entirety for the first time ever. And aside from some warm-up gigs in August and September (including The Faint’s inaugural shows at Slowdown, the Omaha club run by Saddle Creek), it will be the first time fans have been exposed to the new slim-and-trim quartet of vocalist Todd Fink, keyboardist Jacob Thiele, guitarist Dapose, and drummer Clark Baechle. Catch the electrifying band on tour in a city near you and pick up the 12”.
