Hey Gang,

Thought this may be of interest. Excuse the copy and paste below but my fingers can take no more typing this week. If you can't be bothered reading just look for the bolded free download text below :-)

 Hidden Shoal Recordings today announced the release of the new single ‘Name our Numbers, Numbers’ by Portland-based avant-popsters Iretsu.

“All the elements are erratic if you were to try to isolate all the parts of the song and parse out what is happening. The song is marching. The song is staggering drunk up a hill, then tumbling down the other side, tearing its jeans and getting twigs in its hair—all of this in the first minute or so, but all the ideas and directions are calculated to a sum that is decidedly un-erratic” – Matthew Nicely on ‘Name our Numbers, Numbers’

“Melding such gorgeous, exploratory passages with the ethereal male/female harmonies of Arcade Fire and a sedate indie rock aesthetic, the band’s sound is dreamy and hard to resist… Once it makes its way into your playlist, your brain, your life, this is the type of album that’s hard to set aside” – Popmatters on The Moon and Stars Remain in the Morning Sky

‘Name our Numbers, Numbers’ is now available from the Hidden Shoal Recordings Store. The single will be available for free download until the EP is released on 8th July 2008. A full press release is available here.
