The Raveonettes Announce Select Us Festival Appearances, New Album This Fall

FOURTH LP TO BE RELEASED THIS FALL ON VICE MUSIC

FESTIVAL APPEARANCES AT LOLLAPALOOZA, SIREN FESTIVAL, AUSTIN CITY LIMITS

Danish duo The Raveonettes, are currently hard at work writing the tunes that will comprise their fourth LP, the follow up to last year's acclaimed Lust Lust Lust. Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo will return to Denmark in May to record the album, slated for release early this fall on Vice Music. Further details are forthcoming, but its the anticipation that makes the release of a great record all the more worthwhile, right?

The band will return to the US for festival dates, including stops at Chicago's Lollapalooza, NYC's Siren Festival, and Austin City Limits. Their appearance at ACL will be the kick off for an extensive North American headlining tour, the dates of which we'll be announcing to you soon.
Festival Dates:
6/18/09 NEW YORK, NY SIREN FESTIVAL
7/09/09 CHICAGO, IL LOLLAPALOOZA
10/2-4/09 AUSTIN, TX AUSTIN CITY LIMITS

Press on 2008's Lust Lust Lust:
"[Lust Lust Lust] crackles like a transmission from some spectral AM radio station - one playing tunes from the supergroup that, in an alternate universe, the Ronettes, My Bloody Valentine, and the Velvet Underground formed on a lost weekend." -- ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

"Noisier than old-school Sonic Youth and every bit as menacing as the Velvet Underground circa '68." -- ALTERNATIVE PRESS

"A masterpiece from start to finish." - SOMA
