Pre-orders are now being taken for the Pernice Brothers upcoming Discover A Lovelier You. The disc is officially out on June 14th, but if you do this pre-order deal, you’ll get a bonus autographed digipack insert: a four-page, 2 color portfolio of comics about the band by graphic novelist Robert Ullman, with text by Joe Pernice.

Merge announced that they’ll be releasing, in August, a new record by “Tenement Halls”, which is the new project of the Rock*A*Teens’ Chris Lopez.

And, um, hello? Was anyone going to bother to tell me that Holopaw has a new record, Quit +/or Fight!, and it’s out on August 9th on Subpop? You can listen to a “primitive” version of the title track here, on this page from Found Magazine.
