The wait is over people. Our debut album “After the Wedding” finally hits shelves nationwide tomorrow morning, Friday the 18th of September.

You’ll be able to purchase the album in all the usual outlets, HMV, Tower Records, Road Records, Zhivago, CD World, Record Sleeve, Golden Discs, Xtra Vision and in select privately owned local shops too.

If your local store doesn’t have the album ask them, “why the hell not?” and I’m sure they’ll gladly order it in for you.

The version in shops this week is a limited edition 6 page cardboard digi-pak with 24 page full colour booklet. This limited edition version also includes the exclusive hidden track “You’ve changed man” that some of you may have seen us perform live on this tour, AKA. the one with the banjo, trombone and trumpets. :’)

Oh one last thing, if you do intend buying the album, we’d really appreciate it if you bought it in the next few days. Not that we’re bothered with charting positions, but generally top 30 albums get heard by more people… and we’re eager to share our baby with the world.

Anyway, thanks to all of you for your support over the years, we hope you enjoy the album.

The live tour rolls into Monaghan tomorrow and Mullingar on Saturday if you’re about!

GUARDIAN BAND OF THE DAY INFO.

Hometown: Auckland, New Zealand.

The lineup: Steve Mathieson (vocals, guitar), Tim Van Dammen (drums, handclaps), Stephen Parry (bass), James Brennan (guitar, backing vocals).

The background: From the label that brought the world Late Of The Pier, Cajun Dance Party, Laura Marling and Jamie T come Collapsing Cities, who have just moved to Britain to capitalise on their reputation back home in New Zealand for exuberant, twisted post-punk indie rock. Twisted? The band's debut single Fear Of Opening My Mouth features the playful warning, "Next year I think I'll kill myself", and it's jolly enough to catch on with its "I've got the fear" chorus, unison sung-spoken vocals, handclaps, curvilinear guitar pattern and shambling rhythm just made for collapsing students at indie discos. Fans in high school of exponents of askew indie both American (Pavement, Truman's Water) and local (those heroes of the Dunedin scene, the Clean), CC played their first gig exactly two years ago, in May 2006, when they opened something called the Disasteradio/Kill Surf City Low Hum tour. "We're still toddlers," they say, "but confident toddlers".

Having played Great Escape, Reading and Leeds, Bestival and supporting Black Kids in June. You'll be able to witness their modus operandi - the band apparently scam free studio time wherever they can and record as many songs as they can manage live - and find out what it is that's getting indie's crucial three of the airwaves (Steve Lamacq, Huw Stephens and Zane Lowe were all at their debut UK show last week) so excited. If you like ramshackle, anarchic, chaotic guitar-pop based on nagging, high-register, angular riffs, brainy/dumb choruses and lyrics that expose the contradictions of the modern world and the human condition, you should check them out.

The buzz: "Fear Of Opening My Mouth is a propulsive, jaw-dropping proposition."

The truth: They sound like an NZ version of one of those new American or Canadian commune-bands purveying close-to-collapse indie-pop.

Most likely to: Make Pavement reconsider the timing of their comeback.

Least likely to: Make you depressed.

What to buy: Debut single Fear Of Opening My Mouth is released by Way Out West, with the debut album Elixir Always to follow later this year.

File next to: Go-Betweens, Triffids, the Clean, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.
