dan boeckner, frontman of the canadian indie band wolf parade, and his wife alexei perry want you to have a new song on them, isn’t that sweet? handsome furs are soon releasing the follow-up to their 2007 album, plague park. the new album, face control, will be out february 3rd of this year. you can download the song, “i’m confused” for free via spin mag.
wolf parade’s 2008 release, at mount zoomer, was phenomenal and will be way up there on my best of list when i finally get done with it. if you don’t have at mount zoomer yet, you need it, along with face control on the 3rd of februay. no, really, you do.
