Excepter announce new album Familiar, as well as the fact that you're old as SHIT, Brooklyn psych-noise fan!

If you like it when dancey, trancey, psychotropic, noisy, New York-y bands named Excepter release new albums of dancey, trancey, psychotropic, noisy, New York-y rock music, then today is TOTALLY your lucky day, my friend!

Which… I guess is just as well, because, if you like when dancey, trancey, psychotropic, noisy, New York-y bands named Excepter release new albums of dancey, trancey, psychotropic, noisy, New York-y rock music; you’ve technically been profoundly unlucky since 2010’s double album Presidence. Which is kind of a long time. You’re kind of a loser. Just sayin’.

And, you know, for that matter, I guess, TECHNICALLY, today isn’t your lucky day either. Rather, October 3 will be your lucky day. Cuz that’s when Excepter are set to finally release a new album on the Blast First Petite label. Entitled Familiar, the new record was largely recorded at Studio Faust in Prague and features John Fell Ryan (vocals, percussion, drums), Lala Ryan (vocals, synths, electronics, bass, flute), Matita Rotto (MPC, Waldorf, percussion), Jon Nicholson (synth, electronics, percussion, guitar), and Erica Kenia (percussion). You can check out the song “Sunburned Kids” down below, if you’re feeling… you know, lucky.

Anyway, the whole affair is being released on CD (for some reason) and “500 limited edition double vinyl,” the second disc of which will be dedicated “to the memory of [former band member] Clare Amory,” who died of cancer in 2011. The A-side to the disc will feature a “7 minute dark disco warning siren” instrumental from Nathan Corbin, and a John Fell Ryan engraving described as a “cabalistic vision of the universe through love and loss” will be hand-drawn on its B side. Damn. Sorta puts your problems in perspective, doesn’t it?
