I can't imagine not leaving that show a bit disappointed by the lack of the band's original material, particularly "An Eluardian Instance" and "Gallery Piece," which are the focus of their latest endeavor. The Jon Brion Remix EP is available from digital retailers now and the CD and 12" hit stores tomorrow. Get two of the five tracks track below, free of charge.
