Including long-time audience favorites The Mesopotamians, Withered Hope, and Careful What You Pack, THE ELSE weighs in with 13 lucky songs, and finds They Might Be Giants collaborating on production with the Dust Bros. (Beastie Boys, Beck) and Patrick Dillett (David Byrne, St. Vincent, Mary J. Blige). Amongst a number of firsts, this album is the first in which all the songs are over two minutes long and Marty Beller is on the drum throne for the entire album.
This deluxe package includes photography by Marcel Dzama, and the disc is pressed on audiophile 180g vinyl in a color we have been told is called “pumpkin mystery smoke."
All orders include an instant download of the album delivered to your inbox.

lyrics
I'm impressed, I'm impressed
When that gorilla beats his chest
I fall to bits
I confess
I admit I'm impressed
When the torpedo in the vest barks his orders
I'm impressed
And I find that my head's nodding yes
Though my legs are not following
I'm inspired by events
To remember the exits in back of me
I'm impressed, I'm impressed
When that gorilla pounds his desk
I fall to bits
I confess
I admit I'm impressed
Through generalissimo's request
I can't help but feel impressed
On the one hand he'll
Give you five good reasons to follow him
On the other hand
You see nobody leaving the stadium
I'm impressed, I'm impressed
By that Godzilla's flaming breath
I fall to bits
I confess
I admit I'm impressed
When the tornado from the west crushes buildings
I'm impressed
And I find that my head's nodding yes
Though my legs are not following
I'm inspired by events
To remember the exits in back of me
I'm impressed, I'm impressed
When that gorilla beats his chest
I fall to bits
I confess
I admit I'm impressed
When the torpedo in the vest barks his orders
I'm impressed
