While, I would like to use this time to talk about Modeselektor, and their new album titled Monkeytown (due on October 4th from Monkeytown Records), there is a small part to this story that completely overshadows everything else. Thom Yorke. Yes, the Radiohead frontman who makes front-pages by just offering up a DJ set will be involved in the album, but to what extent we do not know. The record also offers guests Busdriver, PVT, Anti Pop Consortium, and Miss Platnum.
In advanced support of Monkeytown, Modeselektor has some tourdates announced, which you can check out below. Expect more details about the album, and a larger scale fall tour, to be announced in the coming weeks.
