James Ford and Jas Shaw bka dance pop artisans Simian Mobile Disco have announced the release date of their sophomore album, Temporary Pleasure. The follow-up to 2007’s excellent Attack Decay Sustain Release will feature a laundry list of big names, one that includes Super Furry Animals’ Gruff Rhys, Yeasayer’s Chris Keating, The Gossip’s Beth Ditto, Telepathe, and Hot Chip’s Alexis Taylor. August 18th is your magic number, the physical release (in addition to digital, duh) of the album to me made available exclusively through American Apparel retail location.
