By the time the September 9th release date for the (still untitled) new album from The New Year rolls around, it will have been nearly four and a half years since the Kadane brothers graced us with 2004’s most depressing coming of age album, The End Is Near. I’m not complaining because I am confident that the wait will be worth it. These guys have never made a bad record and I’m not expecting them to start now. No information has been released about the album other than the fact that it is done. The Kadane’s are so tight-lipped about this record that they have even resorted to teasing us.

To ease the pain, the Kadane’s are going on tour (dates below) by themselves to tide you over. One would expect that some new songs will be played. Maybe they’ll be extra nice and throw in a few Bedhead tracks for good measure. Sadly, they are avoiding the east coast, but a full tour is expected later this year. The band promises that more details about the new record will be released shortly. Until then, check out this newly completed video for the title track from The End Is Near:
