Listen to a new remix of a Belle and Sebastian deep cut (playing The Mann on 7/10)
Any news from Belle and Sebastian is a great way to start the day. The Scottish indie-pop septet, which makes its first Philadelphia appearance since 2006 at The Mann Center for the Performing Arts next week, just announced the release of a new compilation album to go with the tour. The Third Eye Centre, out August 27th on Matador Records, will gather the band’s b-sides and rarities from the past ten years; think of it as an aughties companion to the great Push Barman to Open Old Wounds comp. This is sweet news, since the band is well known for having deep cuts that are equally good as (and often better than) its featured album tracks. Among the mix is a new remix of “Your Cover’s Blown,” a groovy disco-funk cut from the band’s 2004 Books EP, redone by Glasgow dance-rock dude Miaoux Miaoux. Listen to it below, check out the tracklist after the jump, and get tickets and information on the July 10th show at the Mann Center’s website.
