Pontus, The Devil, and Me climbed the CMJ Radio 200 album chart this week to 46!!! Hip hip hurray. Call your college and request your favorite song. Many thanks.

Alloy posted a pictorial interview with Love in October. Check it out!

The technological magic of the internet has saved us once again! Now you can read about our missadventures on the road on our MySpace Blog. You can also find wacky pictures and random video clips there. If you are going to see us on tour, please bring homemade chocolate chip cookies and milk to the show to pass around!

We are Paste's Video of the Day times two!

Hej, Svierge! Pick up Slitz Magazine (page 41) to read about your favorite transplanted band.

Just a quick note to share the good news: We charted #78 on CMJ in the first week since our album was released! Thanks to all of our DJ friends.

Love in October fans, we are at a crucial time in US and world history. Needless to say the Bush presidency has taken a toll on the world and created an extremely divided America. He has governed by using fear as his mechanism of control to pursue his personal agenda against the will of Congress and the American public. The Bush years are coming to an end and it is time to look to the future. Love in October is endorsing presidential candidate Barack Obama. We believe he is one of the most promising presidential candidates in over 40 years. He shares many of our governing beliefs and brings a sense of optimism that this country desperately needs. We will be out on tour on Super Tuesday 2/5 and won't be able to caucus for Barack, but we urge all of our Minnesota fans to go out and caucus for him. It's extremely important that Hillary Clinton does not receive the democratic presidential nomination. If she does receive the nomination and wins the election, the White House will have been occupied by the Clinton and Bush dynasties for 24 years (possibly 28 if she gets elected for a second term). In our eyes, this is just short of a split dictatorship. This is our time to make a change that will impact the course of the world for the next 4-8 years. Please caucus for Barack Obama on Tuesday February 5th. Click HERE for caucus locations in Minnesota and HERE for national locations on Super Tuesday.

Oh how good it is to be loved. Mother of Minneapolis, nurture us with your media lactating glands to make us grow to be a strong and powerful rock band. We feel the nutrients well up inside of us. You can find out about these nutrients below. Remember to request us on the Current, it's our source of vitamin C.

Attention German Love in October fans, we have news for you! Erik recently did an interview with German music blog Nicorola. Now you can finally learn all the ins and outs of the LiO world by reading about it on their website. For all you left-handed, non-German speaking Americans, we highly recommend that you visit Google Translator and use the "translate website" feature at the bottom of the page. Since technology is overrated, the page doesn't translate correctly at all…but the interview becomes much more interesting this way.

The day is finally here! Today the world gets to hear Love in October in long play format. We're super excited about the new release and all the great love it's been getting from around the world. We have so many exciting things coming up including our CD release show this Saturday followed by our Midwest/East coast tour! I've also seen a first rough cut of our new music video for "Petrula the Destroyer" and it's freakin' awesome! The video should be out mid-February. Let the good times roll.

Quick update to let you know that Pontus, The Devil, and Me charted as the #7 Top Add on CMJ today. For all you non-industry types, CMJ is the primary source for exclusive charts of non-commercial and college radio airplay. They are the Billboard-equivalent for indie artists. So, yes, this is a big deal! :)

We are the gift that keeps on giving...all year round. We realized that we get tons of friend adds each day on MySpace, but not enough love on our mailing list. We know...it wasn't your fault, it was ours. We just needed to show you how much we want to stay in touch with you without becoming your bedroom window stalkers. So we decided to give away a Free MP3 to everybody who signs up for our mailinglist on our MySpace page! Hurry now and check out our page, sign up, and then download "A Day in the Life Of." It's easy as eating pie...sweet sweet pie...

The CD is out in 2 Days. OMG! Are you peeing your pants yet...we are!
