The Paradiso date is from their weekly mail, the Groningen date was already listed at http://www.last.fm/music/Disappears/+events
So yeah, more to come. I'm hoping for another one in south/centre NL, don't like the small hall of Paradiso. Or Belgium.

Or they will just spend their holidays in NL for a coffeeshops & tulips tour :-)

Lookin forward to that!

Hope they don't skip Sweden this time like the last euro-tour. :rolleyes:

best would be EKKO in Utrecht again :)

Lovely!!

First taster of the new album, "Replicate":
http://soundcloud.com/kranky/disappears-replicate

Rockin'! "All Gone White" and "Brother Joliene" appear on the Live From Echo Canyon EP; it'll be mighty swingin' to hear the Pre Language versions of both.

I listened to Lux yesterday. It's good. At times it's kinda like "Why am I not just listening to Wire?", but their songs are sturdy.

I like it! Sound mor experimental that before..

There was a performance on some Pitchfork program that showed them playing a really kickass song. I can't find it on record, though. Also, it was a long time ago.

From Pitchfork...

"Pre Language is the new album from Chicago noisemakers Disappears; it's out March 1 via Kranky. Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley is behind the kit for this one; the album was recorded with John Congleton (Cymbals Eat Guitars, St. Vincent) at SY's Echo Canyon West studio in Hoboken, New Jersey. "Replicate" is the psych-heavy leading cut off the album."

More from BrooklynVegan...

Chicago's mighty Disappears release their third long-player, Pre Language, on March 1 via the Kranky label. This is the first album made with drummer Steve Shelly (who may have more time on his hands now?) who has been with the band for a year now. The material on Pre Language was road tested extensively before hitting the studio (Sonic Youth's Echo Canyon West in Hoboken) and sounded amazing when Disappears played NYC back in July ("...new material written with Steve Shelley is groovier, a little slower than their pedal-to-the-metal first albums but equally awesome. [More Neu!, less Stooges.]")


That holds true with "Replicate," the first released track from Pre Language which is downloadable at the top of this post. Less awash in reverb and vocals that are borderline intelligible, this is a much bigger Disappears than we've heard before on record. Disappears are going on a short tour prior to the release of Pre Language but, unfortunately, they're heading West not East. Hopefully they'll come our way soon. Tour dates are at the bottom of this post.


Tour mates for these West Coast dates are The Fresh & Onlys who were slackers in 2011, only releasing two records -- the "I Would Not Know the Devil" 7" and the terrific Secret Walls EP -- unlike previous years where their output rivaled Bob Pollard's. (OK, so frontman Tim Cohen may have released a couple solo albums as well.) Actually, the F&O's were hard at work on their new album, which is due out on Mexican Summer sometime sooner than later.

You can actually download "Replicate" here:

Hurray! the album is released on my birthday!

Reminds me of when "Green Blues" was released, and I was so psyched to see
MV & EE live, and then they announce the tour dates. No DC, no Maryland.

Mind you, Disappears played Baltimore last year, and I had every intention of
going, but shit happens, and I thought, Oh it's okay...they'll be back.

I'm thinking the Albany and Brooklyn dates will be a go for me, though, so I can't complain. Hope to see some familiar faces in attendance!

Awesome (the new dates!)

Let's just hope for a swedish booking! :D

wow
