Yes, I know "fascination" is misspelled.  That's how The Faint want it and that's alright by me. 

But, misspellings or not, we at REAX are all giggles at the prospect of a new Faint album.  While they did some fine work last year on the Year Zero Remixes for Trent Reznor, we need to dance! 

And it looks like they've dumped Saddle Creek for their own label.  Hmmm.  Sounds familiar. 

From the always reliable Brooklynvegan:

The Faint are set to release their first album in four years - Fasciinatiion - on August 5th through their own, newly-formed label, blank.wav. Fasciinatiion, The Faint's fifth album, is the first in the band's ten-year history to be written, recorded, produced, art directed and released entirely on their own.

The tracklisting for Fasciinatiion:
1. Get Seduced
2. The Geeks Were Right
3. Machine in the Ghost
4. Fulcrum and Lever
5. Psycho
6. Mirror Error
7. I Treat You Wrong
8. Forever Growing Centipedes
9. Fish in a Womb
10. A Battle Hymn for Children
