Fiery Furnaces head for Europe

Two reasons why the announced Fiery Furnaces tour dates are great news.

First, they're going to be in Europe, at all these places:

Strasbourg, La Laiterie (February 17)
Paris, France Trabendo (18)
St. Malo L'Omnibus (La Route du Rock Festival) (19)
Bordeaux, L'Espace Tatry (20)
Barcelona, Razz 3 (22)
Madrid, Moby Dick (23)
Valencia Wah Wah (24)
Lisbon Santiago Alquimista (26)
Istanbul, Turkey Indigo (28)

Secondly, it's a great excuse to post this, Duplexes Of The Dead/Ex Guru live in Dallas:

Furnaces' caucus

What with 2008 all being about the election, Fiery Furnaces have launched a caucus system which will determine the shape of the next record. And, we think, if we've understood it correctly, the shape of US foreign policy on the Middle East through to 2013.

They're calling it Democrock, which sounds unfortunately like Demo Crock, but it's quite fun, if you can follow the system. We understand that supporters of Archer Ave. Cupid’s Corner are running adverts claiming that Roughing It (Or Two Delinquent Dads) features chord changes which are unAmerican.

Embed and breakfast man: Fiery Furnaces

A Saturday evening treat: This is the acoustic "work in progress" version of Japanese Slippers from Fiery Furnaces' forthcoming Widow City CD. The album version is somewhat less, shall we say, linear.
