Folks, if you weren't living underneath a big mossy rock last year, then you know how gorgeous Bonfires on the Heath was, right? It doesn't get more pristine and well-produced than that. Not only was it one of our Best Albums of 2009, but it was one of those albums that manages to fill the belly regardless of mood or location. The heavily orchestrated album weaved through a myriad of styles and instrumentation, never once abandoning the jazzy and psychedelic ethos that they've always maintained. In a surprising move, the band is quickly turning around and following their creative muses up the flagpole. Minotaur, a quick hitting thirty minute, 8-new track album is hitting shelves on August 31st through Merge. However, don't bank on this thing being available physically by that point, because it's being limited to 1000 copies. Enjoy the first taste of the albu, "Jerry," below. You can preorder Minotaur right now by clicking HERE.
