In March, we reported that firm Quietus favourites Teeth Of The Sea were readying their third album, and now we've got confirmation: Master, their follow-up to 2010's Your Mercury, will be out on October 7 on Rocket Recordings.

Never ones to go in for half measures (the teaser the band gave us for the earlier post - watch below - should be awarded trailer of the year, and take a look at the photo above; that's how you do a press shot), the text accompanying the announcement puts the album in fittingly astronomical terms: "a shattered mirrorball of a record fit to transform and transfix all that surrounds it in 2013 and beyond".

It also states that the band's soundtrack work - Reaper, the live score to the re-interpretation of Neil Marshall's Doomsday film, debuted at the 2011 Branchage Film Festival in Jersey, and their 2001: A Space Odyssey tribute Beyond The Transfinite, performed at Bestival 2012 - has played a huge role in the sound of the new album, as well as name-checking a few Quietus stereo mainstays, Byetone, Powell, Prurient, as influences. Plus, for the parting shot, they end with, "Kneel for the MASTER".
