It's time to party! Or, failing that, whatever you do when you listen to noise rock (make dinner?). Through the Panama, the latest neighbor-buggering long-player from blaring Brooklynites Sightings, will hit the streets October 28.

And it's about damn time, too; we've only brought up its impending release twice already. But that may have something to do with Panama's beloved whirling dervish-cum-producer Andrew W.K., who probably lends the proceedings the same whiff of spirit a cheerleading squad might. All that spirit; can you hear it? Well, you can in October, anyway.

To note: Through the Panama will be released on CD from the folks at Load, while Ecstatic Peace will grind Panama into the vinyl. Thurston Moore: an analog warrior for these digital times.

What's more, Sightings will take the Panama party to the people on a short run of October dates.
