Diehard Fiery Furnaces fans must be a broke and exhausted bunch, what with the insane amount of content constantly being released. Not only did they just release their latest album I'm Going Away, but they're also planning a fan-written record and two cover albums of I'm Going Away, not to mention whatever surprises they pull out next.

To add to the heap of content, Thrill Jockey has announced that the label will be reissuing Fiery Furnace dude Matthew Friedberger's 2006 solo double album, Winter Women/Holy Ghost Language School. On top of the album's original 29 tracks, the reissue will come with four bonus tracks. So, you know, cancel your plans, because you've got some listening ahead of you.
