The Church's Acoustic Album Available At This Momento

El Momento Siguiente, the new acoustic album from The Church, is now available from the band's online store. The album, part of the Liberation Blue acoustic series, won't be available in Australian stores until February 3rd. According to the band's website, it "is not available anywhere else in the world" although it presumably will be as a (possibly-pricey) import.

El Momento Siguiente includes three new songs, "Song In The Afternoon" (described as "sunbathed"), "Bordello" ("strange, surreal fragmentation"), and "Comeuppance" ("filmic), and a duet with Inga Liljeström on "Pure Chance", from last year's Uninvited, Like The Clouds.

The Track Listing:

1. Wide Open Road
2. It's No Reason
3. Reptile
4. Tantalized
5. Electric Lash
6. After Everything
7. Song In The Afternoon (new)
8. Two Places At Once
9. Appalatia
10. Bordello (new)
11. Pure Chance
12. Grind
13. NSEW
14. Comeuppance (new)
