RACES announce summer tour, racists announce summer stay inside and boil in their own repulsive hatred

It is a good thing that the internet is text-based and not conversation-from-a-loud-crowded-room-based. If the internet really were the latter, you might have heard the headline of this article and thought that racists were going on tour. “Racists? I don’t want to see racists.” That’s you reacting in this imaginary situation. Frankly, I don’t blame you! I wouldn’t want to see racists either and I’d be doubly concerned that they had become organized enough as a group to book an entire tour. That would truly be unfortunate.

Thankfully, we have the sweet clarity of text. As you can see, it’s RACES who are going on tour. RACES are a Los Angeles-based indie rock signed to Frenchkiss who are (probably and hopefully) not awful racists. They are going on tour to play songs and (probably and hopefully) not try to spread a message of hate and intolerance for other living human beings. They’ll be on tour through much of July and August, playing a string of shows in cities that you might live in. Do you live in Denver? Minneapolis? Chicago? Austin? The other cities on this tour? Well, then you can go see them. Did I mention that they have a debut album called Year of the Witch out on Frenchkiss? They do. See, they even love witches.
