Pitchfork: Mew Plot North American Invasion

It seems like Danish dream pop wackos Mew were just in North America, but they're already coming back. The band behind the Pitchfork Recommended LP And the Glass-Handed Kites will open for (cringe) Kasabian on most dates.

Mew recently recorded acoustic versions of four songs (two each from Kites and 2003's Frengers) for AOL's "The Interface" podcast. You can hear those songs and an interview with the band at the link below. Tour dates after the jump.
