Canadian indie rock kings Broken Social Scene already announced they are releasing Forgiveness Rock Record, on May 4.
While recording that new album, the group noticed a lot of quality tracks didn’t make it onto Forgiveness Rock Record. So they decided to make a second mini album. The EP Lo-Fi For The Dividing Nights will be released on May 3, one day before the album. It has 10 original songs.
A message on Broken Social Scene’s website describes how the EP was born… "Lo-Fi For The Dividing Nights was written during the recording of Forgiveness Rock Record in Chicago. During downtime band members would head into Soma’s second smaller studio to test out new ideas and overdubs while John McEntire worked in the main room. Here they created lovely little soundscapes, one of which ended up being the closing song on Forgiveness Rock Record, Me & My Hand, and the rest became the beginnings of Lo-Fi For The Dividing Nights."
The 10-track collection can be pre-ordered online and will available in select independent music stores on May 3.
