pretty cool stuff. the grateful dead sample bit is pretty interesting. this release will certainly be a great capper to what has been a phenomenal year for the band. also if you haven't heard,  the guys have released a live rendition of "bleed" called "bleeding" that can be heard as a b-side on their brothersport 10-inch single. that's available now over at domino records website, who is also producing fall be kind. you can listen to "bleeding" online over at hypemachine.

*update* rumor has it that the fall be kind has been leaked on to the interwebz. ohnoes!!! just fyi...
