Cloud Cult - The Meaning of 8

This is not a post about Cloud Cult's new album "The Meaning of 8". That doesn't mean I'm not excited about it. It just doesn't officially come out until April 10th, 2007, so I thought I would hold off a little. That is the cover art above though, and this is the video for the already-a-hit song "Chemicals Collide":

More new songs are streaming here.

Tickets are still on sale for a Cloud Cult show at Mercury Lounge in NYC on April 14, 2007. I feel lucky to still have the opportunity to see this band in such a small venue, so I won't even point out the obvious injustices going on around me.

They're also playing SXSW. All tour dates below....

Not sure I understand the "injustices" going on around you...I know that CWK are playing a third night, but I'm missing something here.

Cloud Cult may rock, but this album cover may be worse than Jill Scott and Art Garfunkel!

i agree that this album cover is not so sweet, maybe even worse than the previous album... but i love the band... thanks for the heads up on the show BV!

thanks for the link, BV. it's probably worth mentioning that while the album isn't in stores until April, you can buy it on their web site now. highly recommended.
