Pitchfork: El Perro Del Mar Gets U.S. Release

In June, the eponymous debut from El Perro Del Mar (aka the unfortunately named Sarah Assbring) received the P4k "recommended" stamp of approval. Too bad you weren't actually able to pick up the sweet, sad record then, because it was out only overseas on Memphis Industries.

But don't sweat it, because El Perro Del Mar is due in the U.S. on November 7, courtesy of the Control Group (who also brought Figurines to our shores). The disc will also see release in New Zealand, Australia, and Scandinavia sometime this fall. And for your patience, Americans, you will be rewarded with a bonus track, titled "Shake It Off", but not featuring Mariah Carey.

A series of November dates supporting the record are in the works. In addition, El Perro del Mar has a handful of European shows lined up for September and October, including a UK tour with Camera Obscura.

El Perro del Mar also contributed to Gotherburg duo Fontän's debut record, Aktionskammarn, which was released August 28 via Best Before End.
