It's been nearly two years since the release of PRE's second album "Hope Freaks". Since then, the boys of PRE have continued to play hooky with their band Male Bonding over at Sub Pop, while vocalist Exceedingly Good Keex has kept busy with her band Comanechi, and a multitude of extra curricular activities including a stint in 4ADs Big Pink and a collaboration with Richard Kern. Fans of London's no wave titans had begun to fear that they'd heard the last of PRE, but this September, all fears can be put to rest as the band unleashes their long-rumored, but previously unconfirmed "Third Album". Renowned for their concise, rapid fire, sugar high approach to song-writing, PRE return with five songs (laid down with "Hope Freaks" producer extraordinaire Steve Albini) - for the first ever 7" vinyl "LP" in history. In addition to these five new songs, the band has assembled eight additional rare and unreleased tracks for a special extended edition CD. Recommended if you like: Melt-Banana, Ramones, Buzzcocks, Arab On Radar. Features members of Male Bonding, Comanechi and The Big Pink. Recorded by Steve Albini (Shellac, Big Black) at Electrical Audio in Chicago. First vinyl pressing comes complete with off-set booklet. CD includes eight bonus tracks of rare and unreleased material. Exclusive, unique artwork on the 7" and CD edition. First ever 7" vinyl LP released by SKiN GRAFT Records
