Next up is Mother Skinny, the eighth record from Pollard's Circus Devils. For the uninitiated Circus Devils are a mean prog rock and freak pop outfit. Accompanied by brothers Tim and Todd Tobias (GBV/Clouds Forming Crowns) Robert Pollard has been recording and releasing Circus Devils albums since 2001. With Mother Skinny Circus Devils have recorded an album that is described as the polar opposite to last years largely acoustic Gringo. So I'll expect to have my face melted.

Circus Devils have just posted three songs from the forthcoming Mother Skinny. All three are big slabs of sinister prog- pop.
