Pitchfork

Blah blah 10.0. Blah blah 4.0. Good, now that you're all caught up on ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead's rich, storied history with the website Pitchforkmedia.com, let's move on to the good stuff: according to the band's official website, new album So Divided (Interscope) will slay everything in its wake a good six weeks after our originally reported release date, now hitting stores November 14.

The disc features 11 tracks, conveniently enumerated below, including a Guided by Voices cover ("Gold Heart Mountain Top Queen Directory"-- note the slightly altered title) and guest appearances from the Dresden Dolls' Amanda Palmer and King Crimson's Pat Mastelotto.

The Texas troupe will blaze a trail of death and destruction this fall as they embark on a previously reported tour with fellow noisy nuts the Blood Brothers, whose latest, Young Machetes, drops October 10 via V2. Joining them for the festivities will be Baltimore's raucous Celebration and ToD sibling act Brothers and Sisters.

01 Intro: A Song of Fire and Wine
02 Stand in Silence
03 Wasted State of Mind
04 Naked Sun
05 Gold Heart Mountain Top Queen Directory
06 So Divided
07 Life

10 Segue: In the Realms of the Unreal
