The two press releases from their site (and mailing list) are below about this upcoming record.. It comes out digitally on january 24th in Poland, then March 13th in the States and other places. I'm not clear about if the March release will be digital or on CD or even Vinyl.

For those who've never checked this band out, they released a new EP in 2011 titled Holding Out for More which is pretty good, although more pure power-pop, unlike their more experimental/prog-rock influenced debut record from 2005 Humbility.

Happy New Year! We hope you all had a great holiday and are getting off to a great start in 2012. As we kick off what is going to be a great year, we are very pleased to announce that on March 13th, 2012 we will be releasing our first full length release since 2005's Humbility entitled Vicious Little Smile!
Stay tuned for more exciting news and updates coming soon including tour dates, new music videos, and exclusive sneak peeks of Vicious Little Smile, but in the meantime WATCH THE PROMO VIDEO for a preview of our next single "Kiss on the Fist":

We are very excited to bring you all a very special announcement to kick off 2012. Following the release of two new singles this January we will be dropping our brand new digital LP Vicious Little Smile on January 24th, 2012!

good news. Although I will confess, this band did some really cool things on 2004's Humbility; by having bass/groove or almost funky styles of rock music. And more progressive, for that reason, in some ways. The EP they released in 2008 Covetous and the other songs they've played live since, are more purely power-pop, almost Cheap Trick-like, which in some ways is cool and appealing. But I can't deny, what I like most about this band is how they get experimental at times. I hope these upcoming releases still include that side to them. But we'll know obviously pretty soon.
