Clinic impinge the shit out of us by totally imposing new album Free Reign on us this November

If there’s one thing that fans of Clinic need to know about Clinic, it’s this: Clinic is a band that does shit sometimes, and this current time is one of those times. The second thing they need to know is that this news story you’re reading at the present time concerns itself with the latest shit that they are doing. That shit — the shit that I just spoke of earlier — is exactly the same shit as the shit that concerns itself with releasing their seventh album via Domino on November 13 (in North America), November 12 (in the rest of the world besides Antarctica), and Never (in Antarctica). That shit also has a name, and that’s Free Reign, the shit on which was produced by Clinic themselves in Liverpool and mixed with Daniel Lopatin (Oneohtrix Point Never, Chuck Person, Ford & Lopatin), possibly also there, but equally-possibly, somewhere else (again, besides Antarctica).

Oh, and there’s still a third thing that fans of Clinic need to know (and yet, like all of this shit, the forthcoming shit concerns itself greatly with the antecedent shit that I shat all over up there earlier): NOT ONLY will Free Reign come out in its released form in the usual formats of CD, LP, digital download, and satellite uplink, but — and this is the part of the shit that’s The Shit! — it will also get shat out in this “limited edition UFO format, in the form of an exclusive, glow-in-the-dark, cosmic flying disc which comes with the album download code.” In other words, this shit is also getting flung out as a Frisbee. So, you know, that’s it. That’s the shit. If you’re into it, click here to pre-order some when it’s ready.
