Since last fall, I've posted release dates for Cyne's new album Pretty Dark Things, only to see it delayed each time. In the last notice, I reported that the Gainesville, Fla. quartet signed with Northwest indie-rock label Hometapes (its previous home was German imprint City Centre Offices) and that the disc would arrive in May. Instead, it got pushed back -- again.

But it looks like Hometapes will finally release a digital version of Cyne's Pretty Dark Things on July 29 to iTunes, Amazon and other online outlets. A release date for the CD/vinyl version hasn't been announced. "Over the next few months we’ll be spilling out a pile of videos, remixes, and the like for you all to chew on," says a statement on Hometapes' website. "We couldn’t be happier to be working with them, and to say we are honored and humbled to have them as a branch on our family tree would be a massive understatement."
