While Slumberland Records released Weekend's sophomore record, Jinx, last year, a development in the new year comes this way from Dream Recordings in the form of a tape. Streaming below, you can hear one of Jinx's highlights, “Oubliette”, and for those plastic-loving cassetteofiles, you can hear this and the rest of the record by picking up a copy of the album here, at Slumberland, or on Weekend's upcoming tour, dates for which are below. The new edition of Jinx features brand new artwork, a lyrics sheet, and a download card, but it's limited to 100 copies, so don't sleep through this one.
(And If you're looking to get closer to the band, don't forget that they love fried Oreos.)
