Shellac’s ‘Excellent Italian Greyhound’

Shellac have announced the title of their new album, Excellent Italian Greyhound, which will be released on June 5. Hooray! Apparently, it’s named after Todd Trainer’s dog. This will be Shellac’s first album since 1000 Hurts, which came out back in 2000.

Some tour dates have been annouced in support of this album, including a much anticapated date (at least by me) at ATP v The Fans.
