New Secret Machines Album Due Fall '08

Following in the footsteps of fellow major label ship-jumpers …And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead and -- most notably -- Radiohead, among many others, New York-based space-rockers Secret Machines have announced plans to self-release their third record, tentatively set to come out this fall.

After putting out their last two records via major label Reprise, the Brandon Curtis-led outfit will be assisted with "day-to-day label services" by the World's Fair Label Group, confirms a statement, while releasing the as-yet-untitled LP themselves.
