Let The Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel, Deerhunter frontman Bradford Cox's Kranky debut under the Atlas Sound name, has a tracklist.

Cox, recently in Chicago to mix the record and play with some friends old and new, posted said tracklist on his MySpace (we've also taken the liberty of reprinting it below). He hopes to have the disc available in the early spring, though a concrete date has yet to be set.

Someone must've given Cox carte blanche with MTV's AV cabinet at Wednesday night's Windish Agency showcase at CMJ (more than ably reported on by Pitchfork's own Zach Baron and Marc Hogan in these pages yesterday), as a series of videos of Cox seeking out "all the bands at CMJ that matter" has popped up on MTV's website.

See Bradford and Dan Deacon exclaim things at each other and discuss Dan's misprinted t-shirts! Watch Bradford try to charge a No Age shirt to MTV! See No Age and Bradford discuss their scatological habits! Watch a bunch of girls pamper Bradford just before he goes onstage! Oh, and don't miss a bunch of frustratingly short clips of what already seemed on paper like the festival's showcase to beat.

Hands down, though, the best bit finds Bradford crafting a love note to No Age and taking a couple swings at MTV in so doing. Read along after the jump.

A bit of clicking around reveals Chicago's favorite daughter Kid Sister doing a similar thing at the Fools Gold showcase our Amy Phillips told you about yesterday, and John Norris going wild for "new queen of indie rock," Celebration's Katrina Ford.

Don't miss Pitchfork's own dispatches from CMJ, which continued today and will run through the weekend.

As for Deerhunter, they just revealed their finalized schedule for 2007, which finds them more often than not in Europe.

Dear No Age,

Congratulations on your fantastic CMJ performance at the Bowery. It was also fun talking to you about D.I.Y. culture and community politics on a cable TV station owned by Viacom. I think you were right: it's all about the music and good vibes. I will also try to stop relying so much on the pills. I think a vegan diet might also be a good thing for me. Here's one thing I know: when the sun sets on the 21st century, the feedback and delay patterns our bands are creating will have decayed into a barely audible hiss. I am human, and continue to embrace my hopeless attitude towards all culture. I hope the best for you anyway, and will miss you in the coming storm of hype that will surely ensue.

Love always,
Bradford James Cox, Esq.
