Via: Chart AttackNew Pornographer's fans might want to think about taking a hammer to their piggybanks, because the band has announced plans to sell a scant 1000 copies of a live album (titled Live! to avoid confusion) at their upcoming tour stops in Australia and Japan. It goes without saying these puppies are prime eBay fodder.
The songs were all recordedduring the band's late 2005/early 2006 tour in support of Twin Cinema. Assuming there's any left (yeah right) copies will be made available on the band's website.
As for the band's next studio effort, all signs seem to indicate that an album will be released sometime next Summer. Obviously, once more details surface, we'll pass along the news. The tracklist for Live! is after the jump as are the Australia/Japan dates.
