Anyone who has seen A Place To Bury Strangers live can tell you that they’re amongst the most ferocious live bands you could ever encounter, but they ain’t too shabby on record either, and it’s been over two years since they released their second album Exploding Head.
Today brings the news that the Brooklynites will return on February 7th with a new EP called Onwards To The Wall. The release also sees them switching labels to Dead Oceans, which must make them the undisputed loudest band on their roster.
The new EP features 5 tracks and was produced and mixed by the band themselves. The press release tells us that “Onwards To The Wall packs every bit of the searing sonic maelstrom listeners have come to expect from APTBS,” and that “lead singer and guitarist Oliver Ackerman has found a crucial companion in pulling timeless melodies from their jet engine textures.” Sounds exhilirating, doesn’t it? Well, you can get a taste of it with the free download of “So Far Away” below. The tracklist for Onwards To The Wall is beneath.
