Casper & the Cookies are somehow finding time, amidst all the
rampant touring, to put together some more recordings for you to snatch up. According to their
MySpace blog, they've got the following in the pipeline (I'm quoting them directly to save time):
As-yet-untitled ep

Track list to include new recordings / rearrangements of "Krötenwanderung" and "The Optimist's Credo" and new material. This will be a one-sided 12" vinyl release with a silk screened print on the other side. Limited to 200 copies. For the turntable-deficient, the package includes a cd-r version with extra tracks.

The band is also hoping to complete their new album this year, perhaps to be released by year's end. It should be noted that the PIAPTK subscription club will also feature such luminaries as
Of Montreal and
Norfolk and Western, among many others. Pre-orders are not yet being taken, but you can keep checking at the Olympia label's
website for details.
