English as a foreign language

As if calling your album Mew And The Glass Handed Kites (released 27th September) wasn't enough of a warning that in Mew we're dealing with a band who work in an entirely alternate way to most, the tracklisting's just been announced:

Circuitry Of The Wolf
Chinaberry Tree
Why Are You Looking Grave?
Fox Cub
Apocalypso
Special
The Zookeeper's Boy
A Dark Design
Saviours Of Jazz Ballet (Fear Me, December)
An Envoy To The Open Fields
Small Ambulance
The Seething Rain Weeps For You (Uda Pruda)
White Lips Kissed
Louise Louisa

More excellence in store to tide over those increasingly cold winter months: a Pixies reformation tour live DVD, the Elbow album we're calling better than the last one, Neutral Milk Hotel's US indie standard In The Aeroplane Over The Sea getting an extended reissue on Domino and All Tomorrow's Parties' Don't Look Back series of classic album live run-throughs including Entertainment!, If You're Feeling Sinister and Superfuzz Bigmuff
