Former Jay Reatard cohorts Useless Eaters are set to release their new album Hypertension this Tuesday via Jeffery Drag Records. Spinning post-punk demagoguery and an ear for catchy riffs into something instantly memorable, the band has taken more than a few notes from their dearly departed friend. Leading up to the album’s release, the band has just shared a new video for the title track from the album. Check out the video for “Hypertension” below, as well as some upcoming tour dates.
