Cover art for Rocket Fire . The new Ceremony record that I speculatively mentioned back in early March is finally really, truly out! True to my hopes and suspicions, it's flat out fantastic. While comparisons could easily be made to A Place To Bury Strangers, anyone with a keen ear for melody would have to agree that Ceremony lends themselves much more to Skywave's pop sensibilities than that of APTBS. That said, the noise is definitely coming before the pop on Rocket Fire — and to great success, too! Songs like "Stars Fall" and "Marianne" are total noisepop gems worthy ...

One of the many stellar songs from A Place to Bury Stranger’s second album Exploding Head was recent single “Slipping Away”, swathed as it was in industrial beats, brooding guitar complemented by a disaffected vocal (“Time’s Slipping Away” so true, alas) by Oliver Ackermann, plus a chilling Cure-esque middle eight. Brighton band and remixes to [...]

We trap the loudest band the land in the Static studios to talk the good talk about their beginings, effects pedals and not being labeled shoegaze, but are disappointed to learn that they aren't in fact the loudest band from New York -- "Jono: It was Time Out New York, they came to our rehearsal studio and had a decibel meter while we were rehearsing, but then they went to Music Hall of Williamsburg, which is this huge 500-capacity venue and then they recorded Black Dice and they were louder than us."

Mother Nature is one crazy woman. On Friday I was complaining about the pollen situation where I'm at, but that pales in comparison to the havoc that the Icelandic Volcano has caused globally. We're on our fourth day of flights being cancelled, choas being caused, and people being stuck in places they don't want to be. On Friday there was a story saying that over 17,000 flights were cancelled as a result of the ash. That's a massive amount of flights that's going to cost the airline industry tens (if not hundreds) of millions ...

Psychedelic shoegaze outfit A Place To Bury Strangers are heading to the ...

The self-proclaimed loudest band in Brooklyn, A Place To Bury Strangers made their 3rd stop in Austin in about a year at The Parish, this time performing opening duties for the bombast electro-rock outfit The Big Pink. My first thought on this musical road marriage was WTF? I had heard The Big Pink’s latest release [...]
