- Rook is the fifth studio album by American indie rock band Shearwater. It was released on June 3, 2008 on the Matador Records label. The track "Rooks" is the first single from the album. The album was previewed on May 5, 2008 and May 29, 2008 at two special concerts that took place in Manhattan and Austin, Texas. The band toured in support of the album later in 2008. The album gained the band a spot on Entertainment Weekly's "Must List" on May 28. Shearwater released the album both on CD and vinyl, with the vinyl version having an extra bonus track called "North Col". Meiburg said he chose the title for the sound of the word and the fact that it has multiple meanings. The theme of birds recurs frequently with the band, from their name to titles of songs and albums (for example, "Sing, Little Birdie" and Winged Life). Meiburg is an ornithologist.
