Since the title of “best ever death metal band out of Denton” is taken, Midlake will have to settle for best ever mid-tempo indie band out of Denton. The band will further cement this status when The Courage of Others, aka one of the Top 35 Albums to Buy in 2010, is released to the public Vion February 2nd from Bella Union. As BrooklynVegan points out, full scale tour of Europe and the states is not set through April. Particular highlights include a yet specified stop at South by Southwest and an appearance at NX35 in Denton, TX.
Can’t wait? BrooklynVegan has two MP3s available for free download, right this very minute! Or, buy these two songs (“Rulers Ruling All Things” and “Acts of Man”) on limited edition 12″ at select record stores.
Tickets are now available via Ticketmaster.
