I picked up New Zealand band Jakob's Cale:drew back in December, and liked most of it. So when I noticed a new Jakob record available on eMusic, I picked it up. Solace, by Jakob, is a post-rock-ish record, and a nice one at that.

Their record label, Midium Records, claims the new record won't be out until May 7, 2007, but I've got a copy playing right now that I downloaded from eMusic, with a release date of April 2, 2007. Perhaps their talking about hard copies. In any case, I've got it, it's good, and I think you should have a listen.
