From an email I got this morning..
it has come to my attention that 2 full length tracks off of our upcoming album, merriweather post pavilion have surfaced online. david, noah, and I please ask that someone assist us and leak all of the remaining tracks on the album.
the album is intended to be heard as a whole, and nothing bothers us more than individual tracks leaking and ruining the the overall album experience

The email is from a paw-tracks.com address which was probably hacked or faked. Nice try guys. For the final time, ain’t no leakage here.

What a genius idea….kudos for not falling for it.
You never know though, you should do it just in case… to be sure… :)
The Quietus got one of those today as well.
Yeah… its probably not a fake. They did the exact same thing for Strawberry Jam. Its not them who cares about the record leaking, its the lable

Thats the interview where Panda Bear says the same thing for Strawberry Jam
How dare you claim that Geo’s beard is fake.
NIck, don’t they own the label? But if this is true, kudos!
How did he know you had the album in the first place?
Maybe it is legitimate?

I’m talking about Domino Records, not Paw Tracks
Imagine being stupid enough to fall for that.
Anyway, I know this Nigerian prince that needs to deposit money in your account. If you’d just give me your bank details…
that’s kind of cheesey that they named their new album after a venue in Columbia, MD. that’s gully. NOT.
that’s a place where they have high school graduations and concerts.

It might have leaked, and i might have heard it and it might be unbelievably awesome
I might just agree with you there Joe. It’s bloody fantastic.
Finally, people will understand my ramblings over the last 6 weeks!
i just have to agree with you boys. the album is utterly amazing, and appealing to the ear as if it were some new sound from some distant future. the flow of the album is crazy, everything fits, everything. i loved ac to begin with but its nice to hear them do somthing a lot different. everyone on the planet needs to listen to this, for we are wittnessing a true masterpiece.
Very true, Mike. I’d especially encourage anyone who has written them off in the past as too inaccessible to give this one a try. There isn’t one poor track on here. It’s pure aural ecstasy!
Just saw this on last.fm: http://www.last.fm/event/878309 :D
