    all i've heard is that mr. gibbard is busy with death cab so they're not really working very hard to put a new album out.

    Nothing on a new full length. However, I've been waiting on this Sillouettes single to be released. It was originally slated to hit the streets back in October. It got pushed back a few times and the latest release date I've seen is Feb 8th.

      Finally, the "We Will Become Silhouettes" CDS is out. And it does not contain the Phil Collins cover (seems that's only available via download). The 4 track single contains the original title track and a Matthew Dear (?) version that is very slow and rather forgetable. Also, Styrofoam remixes Nothing Better, which is pretty good. The only new material is a track called "Be Still My Heart". It's about on par with the full-length tracks, but I wouldn't expect it to become your new favorite track or anything.
