After a veritable smorgasbord of professional setbacks, The Cool Kids will finally release their full-length debut, When Fish Ride Bicycles, exclusively through iTunes. To celebrate the occasion, Reggie's Rock Club is throwing a party on Tuesday, July 12 from 8 to 10 p.m., according to an email sent by the rap duo's reps. [Ed. note: Sorry, we we've been informed that the party isn't open to the public, so you'll just have to listen to the album at home ... or throw your own party!]

So Tuesday's the chance to see if the wait was worth it, or if The Cool Kids have long had their moment in the rap hype sun.

Check out the duo's latest tracks over at Fake Shore Drive, and take a peek at the duo's cover story in this week's Chicago Reader.
