New Black Kids Album......sort of.


Black Kids are to release a new, full-length album on Columbia Records called Partie Traumatic on July 22 2008. Even though they've received such critical acclaim with their first couple of singles, they might leave fans feeling cheated with their new album because it supposedly will only feature 3 new songs in addition to the songs.

Overview provided by indierockcafe.com:

With danceable, catchy songs reminiscent of a mix between The Cure and Arcade Fire, Jacksonville, Florida's indie outfit Black Kids have received a heavy dose of critical acclaim, blogger buzz, and the inevitable backlash over the past year.The band, who made it on to the indie music map with the singles "I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance With You" and "Hurricane Jane" (see link below) is now under enormous pressure with the upcoming release of their debut album, and fans and critics will be expecting more than just a hurried release containing a set of mediocre songs.
