You can pre-order the album now on iTunes and get an immediate download of “All Your Words Are Gone.” Or you can reserve your copy of the CD or vinyl over in the Grand Jury shop.

Also, as we mentioned yesterday, the band will be playing a string of free residency shows at The Echo in LA throughout February. After that they’ll make the trek down to Austin for SXSW 2015, before hitting the road in support of the record.
