Guess what? This July The Strand is featured on a compilation CD that will blow your minds. We are very lucky to be on a CD along side many famous and kick ass bands such as Ladytron, IAMX, Onetwo, Celluloide, Mechanical Cabaret and Boytronic. The comp is called Orbit Electro from Major Records in Germany. They will be sending The Strand a few limited copies to sell, so we hope to have them for sale at our upcoming shows in September. Otherwise, I’m sure you can find a way to order them online if you’re crafty. Here’s the track listing.
