November 30, 2004 - Alright, we finally scooped out some concrete details on Frances the Mute, set to be released march 22:

All the players are the same as have toured for a year now. However, the album will also include a great number of guest performers, including Larry Harlow as previously reported. It was produced by Omar, mixed by Rich Costey, and recorded in Australia, Los Angeles, Puerto Rico and New York.

Storm Thorgerson is doing the artwork again, and the lyrics will be included in the package this time. The songs are both in english and spanish. The Widow will be the single, and it will have a video. A very early version of The Widow was played at the Wiltern shows.

The 77 minutes of music will be seamless all the way through. The tracklist looks like this:

FRANCES THE MUTE:

A. SARCOPHAGI

B. UMBILICAL SYLLABLES

C. FACILIS DESCENUS AVERNI

i have a copy of the album on soulseek :D

its pretty cool

no too far away from drunkenship of lanterns and the experimental stuff they have done

its a bit more self indulgent than de-loused, actually gets a bit boring for a while

Pretty cool??? It's ace!!

I love the song "L'Via L'Viaquez" so much. It's just so... phwoar. :love:

It makes me want to learn Spanish..

Although I do agree with the.. "gets boring after a while" bit, as.. it's true. Mainly at the start and ends of the songs.. But that aside.

Get it.
