it'll be on youtube in 24 hours

Cover art for No Cities To Love, the new something, is up: http://www.wonderingsound.com/news/sleater-kinney-release-new-music/

Again I say oh dammmmmmmmmmmmmm!

If this is a new ~album~, how was news of such a reunion not already leaked???

Portlandia exists solely as a method of distraction.

THAT TIME CORIN GUEST-STARRED! IT ALL MAKES SENSE.

a whole new album would be insane

If Beyoncé could pull it off, so could S-K.

could def imagine them covering 'pretty hurts'

If you go back to the Pitchfork link now, they've embedded an instagram video from Stereogum with an audio clip of "Bury Your Friends" and it sounds like a good song in as much as you can tell from just a few seconds of it.

can I just? AAAAAAAH

Head explode.

!

Oh snap. I watched their penultimate show from the side of the stage here and my feeling then was, man, this band has so much more to offer. Belated, but I'll take the return.

Seriously. . . does the world need ONE MORE S-K album?

If the other nine songs are as good as Bury Your Friends, then the answer is yes.

fuck you S-K for making me want to go to Terminal 5

Who said it's just going to be one more album? The fact that they bothered to record another album when they could have just reunited and toured indicates the creative juices are flowing. I dunno if we'll get another tour/record/tour cycle, but I bet/hope they keep releasing new stuff, in some form.

I heard whispers about this several months ago but the tru feelings of ecstatic joy didn't hit me til today

No Cleveland date, of course, since nobody ever comes here anymore, so I'll do either Pittsburgh or Chicago. (Or DC, maybe, since I still have a lot of friends down there I'd like to see.)

Terminal 5 sucks but I would still go see SK even if they were playing at the bottom of the East River.

kinda refreshing to see a reunited band book a bunch of the same-sized venues they were playing before instead of going straight for the festival payday

@prepxn
“@Carrie_Rachel: woke up 2 news my band #sleaterkinney back together & that we have new record coming.” No,sorry

xp the London venue is approx 3x the size of venues they were playing before fwiw

ah maybe the European venues they're hitting are bigger. but like, the 9:30 Club, they were selling out multiple nights at that place for ages, they could easily play bigger rooms in D.C.

@Sleater_Kinney
Not to worry, additional tour dates will be announced soon! #sleaterkinney

There's only so much touring they can do without interrupting Portlandia's shooting schedule, right?

Maybe the entire season will take place on the bus?

As someone who lives near Spokane I find it sort of awesome and hilarious that their first show back will be there. I can't believe that there won't be some Portland or Seattle shows prior to that.

YOU GUYS

:D :D :D

Seriously. . . does the world need ONE MORE S-K album?

JF OTMFM. Listening to this now, and it easily would've made my poll ballot. That opening riff is just so fantastic; I can't think of anything else in their catalog that swings like that.

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

Won't be able to sleep till the California dates are announced.

the world needs like three more SK albums, waterface.

Surely this'll be the exception to the "Don't Wear a Band's T-Shirt to Their Gigs" rule, right??

New song is great! And so instantly sounds like S-K rather than Wild Flag or the Corin Tucker Band or their other things.

My wife ordered the box set, UPS just delivered it, personally sent by the singer from Mudhoney:
