Mute Records has signed Sweden's dark electro-pop duo the Knife for a US release, making the band's new album, Silent Shout, available stateside for the first time. The CD will appear on June 27 along with a 12-inch and CD EP featuring remixes from Shinedoe, Troy Pierce, and Get Physical's Williams. Silent Shout has earned praise for its acidic, goth-inclined songs and uneasy atmospheres from both The Wire and Pitchfork — which gave the album a coveted 8.6 rating. The duo's debut live performance at London's Scala sold out in a stiletto's flash. [thanks, Earplug]
