Add another Chapel Hill band to the tally. That’s right, the Love Language are joining Merge Record’s roster. After touring with the Rosebuds and blowing up on the heels of the release of their debut LP, the band seems a nice fit for the king of local labels.

In the press release, Stuart McLamb said,

“As of yesterday I’ve overdrawn my bank account by $200, my girlfriend dumped me and my car won’t start. I think this Merge deal could be a real turning point.”

Mac and Laura–making things happens. The band is currently at work on the sophomore LP, set for 2010.
