Big triangular play button, upper left? Hit that and enjoy the dulcet tones of Mike Doughty (guest starring on Front's new album) while you read about the tour:

The tour!? Indeed. It launches this weekend at EPAX.

There's details on the calendar, though we hope you will forgive us if we update the showtimes as we go along (a number of them are guesses). Also! There's a a whole return leg on the west coast and through the midwest throughout May, which we'll be announcing extra soon. Who wants to be on a street team? Drop us a note.

Hello! MC Frontalot here. I always write the news, but today I'm doing it without referring to myself in the third person like a dick.

I just wanted to tell you that my new album Zero Day is coming out April 6th. If you order it right now you can download it right now (and get the CD in the mail in April). You can even download the 24-bit FLAC, which has what we in the biz call "fancier sound quality" than that of the CD version.

So check out what's what on the Zero Day album page. There are song snippets and album credits and a free download of the first single Your Friend Wil. I and my many extremely talented collaborators worked super hard on this album, and we all hope you like it.

I will say lots of additional things about the thing very soon, right here! But I will go back to doing it in 3rd (aka "the dickth") person because: this is a news post, not a motherfucking blog, and I have got lots of journalistic integrity.

Cheers!

PS I am at south by southwest all week, and you can follow my adventures on the bird-themed chatter output service.

Front and the Sturgenius are at SXSW in glorious Austin, TX. Tonight (Monday) is a show open to all at the Flamingo Cantina, and Wednesday is Front's panel followed by a signing followed by the official SXSW showcase. If you were on the mail list, you'd be laden with details already.

Day one is coming. By then, it will already be too late.
