Coldplay/Mew Offshoot Apparatjik Give Debut Album North American Release

BY Stephen CarlickPublished May 28, 2010

In late November of last year, we reported that Coldplay bassist Guy Berriman, Mew front-man Jonas Bjerre and A-ha guitarist/keyboardist Magne Furuholmen were working together under the band name Apparatjik. Now, after giving their debut album a European release, it's set to hit North American shores in just a few weeks.

According to Consequence of Sound, the album, appropriately titled We Are Here, will drop June 15, courtesy of label Meta Merge Un Ltd., which we think is just the band's own. The tracklist is apparently the side of the cube you see here, and believe us, it's the easiest part of the band's website to understand.

You can get a three-song sampler of the album by going here. They want your name, email, and country of origin, but they could've made it a little clearer.

Here is a video of Apparatjik playing the song "Snow Crystals" from inside a cube in Berlin:
