Release Notes:
--------
The Baltimore-based indie pop rockers are known for their tuneful-wistful rock
(The Washington Post) and literate, yet still youthful sound (Allmusic). The
Seldon Plan spent the last few years taking on a busy tour scheduleincluding
shows with Explosions in the Sky, The Stills, Now It's Overhead, The Octopus
Project, Matt Pond PA and Hammer No More The Fingers. The band has also made
numerous appearances on radio, television, and film over the past few years
while keeping a strong DIY ethic.

After the acclaimed release of 2009's Lost and Found and Lost, praised for its
catchy simple melodies awash with lush vocals, hip full guitars, and a hint of
Flaming Lips by artist/composer Mark Degli Antoni (David Byrne/Soul Coughing)
and dubbed smart pop with no wasted space by record producer Brian McTernan
(Senses Fail/Piebald/Thrice), the band took a break from touring and recording.

In early 2010, Dave Hirner (bass) and Nestor recruited Frank Corl (drums) and
Chris Ehrich (guitars/vocals) to play a live performance and interview with Jack
Rabid (editor, The Big Takeover) at The Kennel Studios in Brooklyn, NY.
Energized by the performance, characterized by Jack Rabid as more insistent
hard indie rock greatness from The Seldon Plan, Nestor, Hirner, Corl, and
Ehrich decided to record two video singles, "Millennials" and "China Blue" for
release during summer, 2010 as a way to explore the medium of video.

Coalizione del Volere, the new album from The Seldon Plan, is a direct
descendant of these video sessions-reflective of a desire of the band to step
back to a more Dischord-era-like guitar-driven rock sound, akin to 2005's Making
Circles but with the softer, more mature edge of 2007s The Collective Now. On
Coalizione del Volere, the band seems intent on exploring a more angular guitar
rock sound within the context of focused melodies and textured intricate
harmonies. Listeners who have enjoyed The Seldon Plan through their first four
records will delight as The Big Takeover has at the Baltimore foursomes
continued maturation."

To this end, the band presents a mature Seldon Plan sound, an amalgam of
influences that can be heard but do not define Coalizione del Volere. The use of
strong and repeatable melodies is reminiscent of the American Analog Set, yet
the technicolor layers of Coalizione del Volere bring to mind Let Go-era Nada
Surf and The Californian by Sunday's Best. To drive home this past/present
dichotomy The Seldon Plan has teamed up again with engineer Frank Marchand (The
Thermals, Bob Mould), who worked with the band on 2005's Making Circles, and
2007's The Collective Now.
