Following one of the best albums in 2009, Each and Everyone, Northeast Ohio big shoegazers Annabel come back with a new EP, Here We Are Tomorrow.  The 5-song EP is a continuation of their unique brand of fist-pumping skygaze, with a heavy pop backbone, and their best production to date.  Check out “The Forgetting of Names of Faces” above, or head over to Shock Mountain to download the entire EP.  Four of the five songs are getting an official 7″ release from Tiny Engines, with 300 copies on blue/white vinyl and 200 on maroon/white.  You can order one here for $6, or both of them for $10.

Annabel released an EP called Now That Were Alive EP in 2008, and they re-recorded most of the songs on that EP for this full-length, with a result that’s nothing less than absolute magic. I strongly recommend the fist-pumping blaster “Parade Rest”.
