Brooklyn's Fang Island première a second track from their forthcoming album on Pitchfork.  Listen to the song, 'Sisterly'  here

Pitchfork also recently hosted the wonderful first track released 'Asunder' which is available to stream here as well.

Major is confident and more mature record following on from their 2010 self-titled début.

 "One of our core ideas has always been that our songs would be all of your favourite parts of the song that other bands make you wait 8 minutes to get to," explains guitarist/vocalist Jason Bartell. "We wanted to be the band that's nothing but your favourite hooks back to back." 

 "Some reasons the band called the album Major:
- Major key (the first song is minor though!)
- Valley girl colloquialism
- Because we are on an independent label
- Because the rank under Sargent (House) is major
- It sounds like a constellation
- Steely Dan's "Any Major Dude" was in rotation a lot during the sessions
- The record is packaged to look like stone because it's ROCK. I really wanted people to hold a piece of rock when they picked up the record."

Major will be released in the UK on LP, CD and download via Sargent House on 30th July, 2012 .The band will be touring the UK in December this year.
