Death Cab For Cutie to release anniversary edition of debut album
And their most recent album will come out on vinyl
Death Cab For Cutie have announced that they will reissue their 1998 debut album 'Something About Airplanes' this autumn.
The limited-edition deluxe reissue is due out in the US via Barsuk Records on November 25 and will mark the 10th anniversary of its original release. It will include a bonus disc featuring a recording of the band's first-ever Seattle show in February of 1998, as well as redesigned artwork and new linter notes written by Harvey Danger's Sean Nelson.
The band have also announced that they will release their latest album, 'Narrow Stairs', on deluxe vinyl on the same day. It will include a 7” single featuring demo versions of album tracks 'No Sunlight' and 'The Ice Is Getting Thinner'.

Von Bondies Sign To Majordomo, Finally Set Album Release Date
It's been years in the making, so let's hope the new Von Bondies record, finally inked in for a February '09 release isn't a complete letdown.
The Detroit band, headed by one-time White Stripe-beater Jason Stollsteimer, had originally planned the release of their third album 'Love, Hate and Then There's You' for early 2008, but problems finding a label to release it, plus the perennial line-up changes have resulted in the delay, with Stollsteimer comically noting that the band “would have signed a lot sooner, but it took us four years to find a pen.”
The tie-up with Majordomo, home of the Airbourne Toxic Event and Earlimart, marks the third consecutive LP that the Von Bondies have switched labels. The band did imply earlier this year that they would be releasing their records independently now, following their departure from Sire.
"For me personally, [the relationship] had run its course. I love the people we worked with, but it wasn't right for what I wanted to do." says Stollsteimer, “At this point [we] kind of don't need one, we know how many records we'll probably sell on our own and we're OK with that.”
The Von Bondies will also tour the U.S. this autumn. A new single, taken from the album, entitled “Pale Bride” will follow November 18th as a 7-inch vinyl single.

Neil Diamond's latest album, "Home Before Dark," will be released as a double-LP set on 180-gram vinyl Nov. 11 via Columbia. The LP includes two bonus tracks: covers of Nilsson's "Without Her" and Bob Dylan's "Make You Feel My Love," as well as a digital download card.

The first-ever vinyl release from the Cruz del Sur label will be the album "Be Gone" by acclaimed U.S. act PHARAOH. "Be Gone" was released as a CD and limited digipack CD in April. The upcoming deluxe vinyl version will include a full-color poster and a bonus 7" record containing two additional songs from the "Be Gone" album sessions. This package, scheduled for a November release, will come in a gatefold sleeve and be limited to 500 copies.
