Champaign, Illinois outfit Headlights will release their sophomore album, the follow-up to 2006's Kill Them With Kindness, via hometown label Polyvinyl tomorrow (February 19).

Some Racing, Some Stopping is the record's title, and it betrays the tour-heavy nature of the band's schedule in the coming weeks. Recently expanded to a quintet-- thanks to the addition of Decibully's Nick Sanborn and Shipwreck's John Owen-- Headlights have already headed out on their previously reported North American jaunt with Evangelicals. Catch them all in Athens, Georgia tonight.

Some Racing, Some Stopping:

01 Get Your Head Around It
02 Cherry Tulips
03 Market Girl
04 On April 2
05 School Boys
06 Some Racing, Some Stopping
07 So Much for the Afternoon
08 Catch Them All
09 Towers
10 January
