Skree-awk.
Abrasive post-punk noise boys Girl Band have just announced a North American tour for this coming fall. Throughout November and December, they’ll be hitting some of America’s finest cities. We’re talking Albuquerque, we’re talking Austin, we’re talking San Francisco, we’re talking Philadelphia, we’re talking The Big Apple itself New York City, and we’re talking a good dozen-plus other bustling hubs of industry. Word has it the boys are researching old interviews from groups like Women and Girls to learn how to best respond to the same three inevitable clever questions/comments.
Buzzzzz-kreak.
This tour comes hot-ish on the heels of the group’s first full-length, Holding Hands With Jamie, out September 25 via Rough Trade. Expect plenty of steel-scraping noise and precise rhythms and maybe even an ominous-yet-melodic chorus or two. Get an idea by watching this new live montage for Jamie track “Paul,” posted below.
Chug chug chug chug chug kreeeee-ooosh.
