These Are Powers, and this is a news story about their new album. All Aboard Future-- which I personally hope is named in oblique reference to the time-traveling train from Back to the Future III-- collects nine tracks of the trio's funky, freaky hybrid thing, and arrives February 17 thanks to Dead Oceans.

The set follows debut full-length Terrific Seasons, this year's Taro Tarot EP, and a split tour 7" with Creeping Nobodies issued just last month and sporting the TAP jam "Cockles".

For the moment, the future train will take the band-- which, don't you know, includes onetime Liars member Pat Noecker-- to a few spots in the UK and Ireland, but if they know anything about promoting an album, you can bet These Are Powers will be back on the road in the oh-nine.
