Black Numbers has announced plans to release the new full length from PJ Bond. Vocalist Bond was previously know as the frontman of Outsmarting Simon as well as member of Marigold, The Color Fred and Charlotte Sometimes.
The record, titled You Didn't Know I Was Alphabetical, is due out November 10, 2009 on CD and vinyl. Black Numbers will press 300 copies of the LP (100 white, 200 blue), as well as a short run (200) of hand-screened CDs with liner notes personally written by PJ.
The label describes the album:
[Compared] to previous endeavors, Alphabetical is decidedly more organic, homespun affair - a heartfelt slice of creaky, back porch Americana tossed against a perfectly catchy pop backdrop. Still, the record has a little bit of everything, from rustic, uptempo alt-country rockers to haunting, melancholy acoustic offerings and sweetly infectious indie numbers. For fans of Rocky Votolato, Neutral Milk Hotel, Whiskeytown and Elliott Smith.
Some music is streaming on PJ's MySpace page.
