The indie rock band will release its seventh full-length album, I Am Gemini, Feb. 21 on Saddle Creek. The album is described as “the surreal and powerful musical tale of Cassius and Pollock, twin brothers separated at birth. One good and one evil, their unexpected reunion in a house that is not a home ignites a classic struggle for the soul, played out with a cast of supporting characters that includes a chorus of angels and devils, and twin sisters conjoined at the head.”

I Am Gemini is available for pre-order through Saddle Creek. Check out the first track from the album, “The Sun and Moon,” below.
