Now here's an appropriate title. Free Blood, the party-crashing newcomers comprised of ex-!!! dude John Pugh and designer Madeline Davy, are all geared up for the release of The Singles, their debut full-length. Indeed, The Singles is rife with tracks from the band's two 12"s, plus a mess of remixes. The disc is due November 4 from Rong/DFA.
