Germany's finest purveyors of abstract beat structures and post-krautrock riddims, Mouse on Mars, have a new 12" single available through the Thrill Jockey website. This latest offering, entitled Agit Itter It It, is available through the mailorder section in limited quantities, and at record shops across this great nation of ours. The record is actually released by Mouse on Mars' own label, Sonig, but the Thrill Jockey kids have thrown it out there so even you backwoods folk can get copies.

It features five new studio tracks along with a bonus seven-inch boasting two live songs, recorded during their last tour in support of Idiology. Don't freak out if you are a big nerd who needs to get every Mouse on Mars release as soon as it comes out but you wind up missing this limited edition vinyl version because you're too busy searching the import racks at Virgin Megastore for that rare Tibetan version of the Cache Cour Naif EP-- a slightly different CD version will be released January 22nd.
