Uncanney Valley is the fifth studio album by American indie rock band The Dismemberment Plan. The album was released on Partisan Records on October 14, 2013, and is the band's first album since their initial break-up following the release of 2001's Change.[3] Three singles from the album were released on streaming services prior to the album's release: "Waiting",[13] "Invisible",[14] and "Daddy Was a Real Good Dancer".[15][16] The release of the lead single "Waiting" was teased with a promotional phone line that when dialed would play the song in low audio quality; the song would later receive a music video on October 16.[17][18][19]
