Yorn's upcoming album,  was produced by Frank Black (The Pixies) and is a visceral, off-the-cuff collection of tunes recorded in just five days in 2008.  At the time, Yorn was in Nebraska making his Back and Fourth album when he got an email from Black suggesting that they record together. Intrigued, Pete flew to Salem, OR, where the two set up an impromptu studio. The resulting songs are raw, born of shattered nerves and shifting dreams, yet edged with hope.
