Check the message board for info regarding the new album. I've been posting updates as they come in. Graeme sent me a copy of the the album cover about a month ago. Mindblowing. Can hardly wait for the release date.

It gives me great pleasure to announce that a new Verlaines album is on the horizon. The album was started in January, the tracking is complete, and mixing is currently in progress. Graeme has been keeping me up to date and I'll let you know more as news comes in.

A special thanks to all the fans for keeping the Verlaines' music alive. Just a little patience, and we'll have one more gem to add to our collection. :)
