… and here’s the amazing seizure-inducing video for “The Break”, off their new album Spills Out.

If you caught the group on tour last fall – where they played these new tunes alongside tight, funky, full-band versions of “There Are Two of You” and “Learning Things at School” (from his last full length, We Bet Our Money on You) – then you have an idea of how exciting this is!  Either way, check out this live version of their new song “When Did You Leave Home” from a June Violitionist session.

Pterodactyl’s new album Spills Out is out today on Brah Records!  It’s an ambitious follow-up to Arnold’s Park and Worldwild, bringing their songwriting front and center and using their noise and texture to flesh the songs out to epic proportions.  The album is streaming in full at Spin Magazine: http://www.spin.com/articles/first-spin-tales-behind-pterodactyls-spills-out

Also, check out this great review on Agit Reader of both Arnold’s Park and Spills Out: http://agitreader.com/reviews/album_reviews-11.15.11.html#pterodactyll-spills_out

And if you haven’t already, check out Pterodactyl’s epic list of tour dates.  Chances are, they’ll be playing a town near you!  http://panacherock.com/artists.php?id=105

Arnold’s Park by Pterodactyl by SOUNGS

The new Arnold’s Park cassette by Pterodactyl is out now!  Arnold’s Park was originally issued last year by Deleted Art as a vinyl-only release.  The audio for this version is newly remastered and features a previously-unreleased bonus track.   Click here to order a limited-edition cassette (with silk-screened artwork and a download code), or click here to stream and download the album.

Pterodactyl start a six week tour this week in support of their upcoming album Spills Out (out 11/15 on Brah/Jagjaguwar).  The band will have copies of Arnold’s Park and Spills Out, along with shirts, DVDs, and the rest of their back-catalog… sickening.  Check them out in a town near you:

And here’s “Arnold’s Park” off the new tape for you to marinate on:

Arnold’s Park by Pterodactyl by SOUNGS

Arnold’s Park – one of two European-only vinyl-only 2010 EPs by Pterodactyl – will be reissued by SOUNGS on November 1st.  All of the songs have been freshly remastered, and an outtake from the same time period (“For Nothing”) is included as a bonus track.  The album will be available for digital download and as a limited-edition cassette (with silk-screened artwork and a high-quality download code) from this site and on the band’s upcoming North American tour.

Arnold’s Park was originally released by Deleted Art in Sweden.  The EP explores the more psychedelic aspects of Pterodactyl’s sound, building expansive songs out of intimate soundscapes, or maybe it’s the other way around.  In many ways, Arnold’s Park is the perfect predecesor to the groups upcoming album Spills Out (out 11/15 on Jagjaguwar) – it also features artwork from Otecki as well as the original version of “Allergy Shots” (which appears in a remixed form on the new album).

Check out the titular track from Arnold’s Park:
