In a message on the band’s website singer Kevin Drew revealed that the band were currently recording the follow-up to their 2005 self-titled album.

The Canadian band are currently laying down tracks for the album at the Soma Electronic Music Studio in Chicago.

The group are enlisting the help of John McEntire to produce the new album which is slated for release later this year.

“I can’t tell you what this record will sound like, who from the other great bands will be involved, but I can tell you it feels amazing to be in Chicago recording,” wrote Drew.
