Menomena’s fourth LP Mines leaked a few weeks ago, but the band is giving you mad incentive to buy the damn thing when it actually hits stores July 27th. Aside from the option of pre-ordering the album from Barsuk’s website in CD, vinyl, FLAC or mp3 form, Menomena’s offering up a plethora of extraneous goodies (for additional cost, of course), including a double 7” with non-album cuts, a glow-in-the-dark poster, and five one-of-a-kind illustrations from drummer Danny Seim. For an additional cost, you can also have all three members of Menomena come take a crap in your bathroom. Just kidding on that last one.
The trio’s announced fall tour dates, too, so unless you want the dudes to autograph your boobs or other unmentionables, bring along whatever swag you get from Barsuk for them to sign.
