Apparently it cropped up in some interview that the band plan to release an EP alongside We Were Dead Before The Ship Sank! Is this true? Apparently its a bunch of songs they really liked but didnt make the cut because it would make the record too long or something.

I got this quote

Were there any songs you plan to release that didn't make it on the record?

IB: We're going to make an EP -- a partner record for [ We Were Dead]. They're really good songs, a couple of my favorite songs didn't make it to the record, but they'll be coming out when we have a chance to get them together. Not a clue when that'll be. There's one called "Autumn Beds" that's about some of the characters that are recurring on this record, the people who worked on the fishing boat -- it's about their trial and them getting killed again. There's one called "Tie the Lake Down," and there's another called "The Whale Song," which is a lot of people in the band's favorite song.

Sounds interesting
