And, come to think of it, your SAK correspondent just realized that both Krug and Boeckner sort of sound like diseases you could catch uptown.

UPDATE: Pitchfork hosts the full track here.

Sub Pop is keeping the new Wolf Parade album under lock and key, as they let NPR post exactly one glorious minute of a new track, “Call It A Ritual,” on their site, which apparently aired on All Songs Considered as well. Is the Parade really so high-profile a group that such measures are necessary? The album drops in June, so it’s time to seed those blogs proper with’n some mp3s, lads!

Some other fine lads at a music journalist hobby site called Pitchfork are reporting that the album title is not yet definitive, though your SAK correspondent isn’t clear how Krug & Friends could possibly improve upon Kissing The Beehive.
