TMBG release new tunes, new app
A screen shot of the They Might Be Giants app, available now.

They Might Be Giants have been making music together for more than 30 years, and they haven't slowed down a bit.

In March the two Johns (Flansburgh and Linnell) will release Nanobots, their 16th studio album. This week they offered a preview by putting three tracks on iTunes and Amazon.

I'm fond of Call You Mom, which is available on Soundcloud, along with another new track, Lost My Mind.

Now, if you're like me and used to call Dial-A-Song on a daily basis, I think you'll dig the new TMBG app, which offers a different song by the band every day (!). The offerings will include new songs, live recordings, rarities and the like. The free app also connects to other goodies from the guys, like their podcast, blog and Twitter feed. I downloaded it and so far have no complaints!

They Might Be Giants embark on a 60-date tour next month. Catch them if you can - their live shows always deliver.
