In January, Shearwater will release Jet Plane and Oxbow, their new full-length studio album, on CD, double LP and digital download via Sub Pop (pe-order here).

Spanning the range from racing synths and hammered dulcimers all the way through to addled motorik rhythms, it promises to be both their biggest and loudest and also their most intricate and detailed record to date.

Have a listen to Quiet Americans, the brilliant first taste from the record.
