This Vital Chapter is the first album from The Panda Band, released in Australia on 8 May 2006 and in the United States on 12 September 2006 - subtitled 'We're Almost Not Even Here'. The album features new recordings of radio favourites "Sleepy Little Deathtoll Town" (which reached #73 on Triple J's Hottest 100), "Eyelashes" and the most recent "Ghosts Have The Best Time". The US release, under the Filter US Recordings label, provided a different track listing to the Australian release.

The album was nominated for the Most Popular Album award at the 2007 West Australian Music Industry Awards.[1]

Following the appearance of the band at SXSW in 2007[2] and subsequent tour of the United States the album received airplay in various cities across the United States.[3]
