In addition, the Austin psych-rock godfathers have confirmed a run of West Coast tour dates, following an expansive tour this Spring that includes a stop at new NYC venue Brooklyn Steel on May 2. Full routing below.

 

Produced by Phil Ek (Father John Misty, Fleet Foxes, The Shins), ‘Death Song’ is the band’s first LP in 4+ years, and has earned early raves from Bob Boilen at NPR Music,  + more. Listen to another standout, “Currency” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qryaZmxdK1A 

 

On April 22nd, a special limited edition release of ‘Death Song’ will be made available in honor of Record Store Day, including the new album on two glow-in-the-dark vinyl LPs and packaging printed entirely in blacklight-reactive ink. Sneak peek here: https://youtu.be/aV_l83KLQ2Q
