The Morning Benders Are Now POP ETC

Apparently the term "benders" has a homophobic slang meaning over in the UK, which the San Francisco indie-pop act has smartly opted not to endorse. To celebrate the name change, you can download a fresh, dance-y mixtape from the band (who are presumably working on the sequel to 2010 sophomore album Big Echo) at their new site.
