I'm not lying, I know it to be true: The Parenthetical Girls.
It sounds like the first Clinic album performed by the cast of Les Miz. Chamber orchestra arrangements and the Max/MSP "Stutterer" patch.

Owen, have you heard Tyler Ramsey's album, A Long Dream About Swimming Across The Sea? It's one of my favorites so far.

He's too modest, he'd never admit it.

What's the new record going to be called? I am entirely in love with the Parenthetical Girls already and they're criminally ignored. Ooh, I hope they come to the UK soon.

I think you'll find the correct answer is The Evening Descends by The Evengelicals.

Hey Owen you need to remember that us mortals have to wait for the leak before we get to hear it.
It's called Entanglements and isn't actually out yet. I enjoyed the last album (it was way back in 2006), found it haunting, but then most of their stuff is. If the new one is as good as the last I'll be happy, but it is a bit early to be announcing this year last next best thing in my opinion.
Owen will probably go off them when I mention that they included Holiday Hymn by Orange Juice in last xmas freebie download as they hadn't done one of there own
