BOOK lands in October and is now available for pre-order.
15 new songs AND a 144-page full-color, hard-bound book, BOOK is a remarkable album and art object.
BOOK the book is a collaboration between They Might Be Giants, photographer Brian Karlsson and Paul Sahre.
The lyrics in the book are selected from the new album, I Like Fun, and My Murdered Remains; all set in layouts that might be best described as concrete poetry.
Paul Sahre actually typed up all the lyrics manually on an IBM Selectric typewriter from the early 1970s.

It's hard-bound, cloth-cover, and printed on super-thick paper stock.
