Head over to TheMorningBenders.com this morning where, for the price of an e-mail, you can download “Promises”, the first new song from the band’s forthcoming Rough Trade album Big Echo (out March 9th). If this one’s any indication, this album will be a monster, maintaining the band’s pop gifts while charting new, ambitious sonic depths. “Promises” will also be on a limited Rough Trade/True Panther Sounds 7″ out on February 23rd.

The Benders will be at The Independent on March 30th as part of their upcoming nationwide tour.
