The Polyphonic Spree are back with a new album The Fragile Army on June 19. They are also launching a tour to support to follow. Too bad it won’t be anywhere near me, but maybe those of you in Columbus can road trip up to Cleveland to catch them. I have to say their shows are something not to be missed.

I like what I’ve heard from the new Polyphonic Spree CD/album/whatever people call it these days. The Fragile Army does hint of Tripping Daisy, but it still sounds like the Spree. I am glad they’re experimenting more musically.
Wow. I am amazed by how much promotion The Fragile Army has been getting. This link was sent out to their friends on myspace the past couple of days. It’s worth checking out.
