Pre-orders and the download dissemination will begin tomorrow, February 24th
The beloved musical group from Canada, Swan Lake, is releasing their newest album Enemy Mine on Jagjaguwar on March 24th, world wide. Those who purchase Enemy Mine through a pre-order program with their local record store or Jagjaguwar will be given a digital download of the album for immediate listening. Try and beat that with a stick!
Pre-orders and the download dissemination will begin tomorrow, February 24th, via SC Distribution here.
It must be mentioned: Carey Mercer has an amazing blog. Go ahead and forget today's productivity, you will be reading only this from now on. This blog is solid gold. The latest entries offer great insight into the working dynamic of Swan Lake and Carey's "gentle life".
Previously Jagjaguwar said that Swan Lake was not going to be touring around the glorious release of Enemy Mine, and we casually mentioned their preferred bribes (enthusiastic mobs and gold doubloons). Some fans did answer this battle cry, forming an online petition to sway Swan Lake's opinion, saying:
We the fans of Swan Lake can no longer remain silent. This petition is our plea to the band, please consider touring! Your fans need you to come to their towns and bestow upon them the great gift of live music. Soon your second record Enemy Mine will be released and now is the time for action. We implore you to truly consider touring to support the new record. Your fans need you!
Please leave comments for the band. We have been encouraged by many of these notes from the heart, especially:
#11 Zach Braff: "I'll make you lots of money."
#42 Luis: "I need to hear 'Are You Swimming In Her Pools?' live before I die."
#206 Leah: "It's a matter of life and death!"
#381 Phillip: "I'd like to hear some songs about Teresa, please"
Enemy Mine will be available for pre-order on February 24th and on CD and vinyl formats on March 24th.
