New single "Lodestar"..par for the course. and the official video:

Tour coming with Closure in Moscow and Sleep Parade. I'm not a fan of either (think they both sound too derivative), but some of the DLC fans probably are.

Release date August 9th with the 1st single "Lodestar" in less than a week.

Mildly intrigued. This Is the Warning had some outstanding tracks like "The Drum," but it also had some minor issues like a samey-ness at points and compression of the cymbals at points.

Along with Asymmetry from Karnivool, this is among the anticipated from down under this year. Especially with the present state of Fair to Midland.
