I got all sorts of excited this morning when I saw The Books leaked a single off their upcoming album, The Way Out. When I say there isn’t any other band out there like these guys, I really mean it. Using a slew of random vocal samples and diverse instruments, The Books create a sonic landscape that goes far beyond unique. I can go on and on about this band, I really could. But I am going to stop there and let this nifty track do the rest of the talking. The Way Out will be dropping in July, their first full-length LP since 2005! Check it out and come back to let us know what you think…

The Books are absolute GENIUS!!!
It’s going to be nice to get back into The Books. Haven’t listened to them in a long time. Weird album cover, though…
Amazing track. Very full.
It’s a great track! While anticipating the forthcoming by The Books, you could also listen to this brand new release on esc.rec. ( http://www.escrec.com/category/escrec27 ) right now, which a.o. features a beautiful track by Paul de Jong (half of The Books).
Holy god this is a revelation. Apologies for the hyperbole, but seriously. This is really good to listen to. Thanks.
