HEAR THE ALBUM ONLINE NEXT WEEK
If you'd like to hear Perfect Symmetry in full before its release (and, frankly, you'd be daft if you didn't), then you'll be pleased to learn that the whole album will be streamed from www.lastfm.com from Monday (Oct 6th). They'll also be streaming the band's commentary on the album's tracks. Woot!

iTUNES ALBUM PRE-ORDERS OPEN WORLDWIDE
Following the opening of the UK iTunes album pre-order last week (click here for deluxe and here for standard), Perfect Symmetry is now available to pre-order from iTunes stores across the world (simply search "Perfect Symmetry" in your local store to find it). The US deluxe version (click here for that) even includes the bonus addition of 11 demo tracks. Those demo tracks are also available on the deluxe CD edition, which you can still pre-order from the Keane shop here.

TV/RADIO UPDATE The band have a quite a few bits and pieces coming up which you might like to tune in for. First up, they're on Jonathan Ross's Radio 2 show on Saturday (10am-1pm), performing an acoustic version of The Lovers Are Losing and having a chat. Click here for more info and to listen online. Then, on Sunday night, you can see them performing at The Secret Policeman's Ball 2008 in aid of Amnesty International on Channel 4 (9-10.45pm).

Some extra tickets have been added to the official Keane ticket shop, so if you'd like to buy your tickets with no processing fee (just a booking fee which is much smaller than the other ticket sites fee), then click here. The bundle discounts saving you money on a T-shirt and the live digital album are also still available. You can also pre-order the live digital album without buying a ticket here.
