Album, tour etc..

You have noticed remix tributes by Memory Tapes, Neon Indian (others on the way). Little murmurs coming from the direction of your best friend's closet.

"But You've Always Been The Caretaker...", The Silent League's 3rd record, is out in North America on Jan 27th. Advance notice from the Village Voice, Death + Taxes Magazine, Filter Magazine, Obscuresound.com, RCRD LBL, NY Press, Time Out NY, and TheLineOfBestFit.com have already hailed it as the League's best. It is not an immediate record. It is a slowly-gestating virus, an ALBUM in the most classic, anachronistic, and interesting sense of the word. There are many ways to buy this record -- a gorgeous physical cd + bonus disc (and eventually double LP) which gives you access to a secure online portal where the band will conintue to post free music (etc) all year long. You can also purchase the single album on iTunes. You can acquire it  via download card for cheap, or free with t-shirts etc, purchased at shows. Shows?

The Silent League will make every attempt to visit your home this year. We begin with a short two-ish week jump down south as far as Florida, beginning Jan 28th (with a FREE party at Bruar Falls in Brooklyn). Accompanying us on tour is The Paper Hats, aka the stunningly beautiful solo guitar + electronics work of William Tyler of Lambchop and Silver Jews fame. Dates on this tour, and March-May dates are being added CONSTANTLY. Check back frequently.

harbingers of a kind of silence,
the league
