Stephen Malkmus And The Jicks / Mirror Traffic

Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks

new album

‘Mirror Traffic’

released on August 22^nd 2011 on Domino

 

On August 22 2011, Domino will be releasing ‘Mirror Traffic‘, the 5th post-Pavement album from Stephen Malkmus and the 3rd or 4th to bear the Jicks name (depending on whether you’re looking at spines, sleeves or labels).  Produced by Beck Hansen, ‘Mirror Traffic’ makes a compelling case that after some 22 years in the public eye, Stephen Malkmus’ full range of musical and lyrical capabilities had yet to be previously explored.

 

It is with regret — and deep appreciation for one of our favourite players of all-time — that we can confirm ‘Mirror Traffic’ is the final Jicks album to feature the drumming of Janet Weiss. Jakes Morris, best known to many of you as the drummer for The Joggers, will assume the same position in the Jicks for upcoming shows, which we’ll be announcing very soon.

 

‘Mirror Traffic’ will be available on CD (WIGCD278), LP (WIGLP278) and via digital download (WIG278D).  Tracklisting is as follows:

 

1. Tigers                                            

2. No One (Is As I Are Be)

3. Senator

4. Brain Gallop

5. Jumblegloss

6. Asking Price
