Some have been mentioned previously (albeit in Danish) but here are a few items relevant to the artists in the playlist:

1. It’s A Trap! reports that the Bear Quartet no longer plans on releasing a new album this year, but will maybe release one in 2009.

2. Oliver North Boy Choir released their sixth single/EP, Holy Wars, on Sunday. You can stream all the songs (and download a couple of bonus tracks) through the special Holy Wars page. Due to my lack of internet, I have still only heard the first three songs once each. (This will soon change.) I think I like Endeavour best.

3. Hello Saferide has a new album, More Modern Short Stories from Hello Saferide. It will be available both digitally and properly (by which I hope I mean on vinyl) 24. September. And if you just can’t wait, Anna, the first single, is available for download from It’s A Trap! right now. (Official release date is 27. August.) My discovery of this download 34 hours after it was initially posted has singlehandedly motivated me to get internet in my apartment. Soon.

4. ballboy will also release a new album, I Worked on the Ships, 25. august. You can stream two of the new songs on their myspace, and you can also listen to and download millions of songs from their back catalog (plus covers other people have done) on the media page of their website.
