Often cited as “the loudest band in New York,” Brooklyn’s A Place To Bury Strangers has returned with a brand new EP, Hologram, out July 16th on founding member Oliver Ackermann’s label Dedstrange.
The announcement was made with the EP’s lead single, “End of the Night”, which “buzzes with percussion and murky noise and synth,” as reflected in the disorienting self-directed video below.
“Hologram is the anticipated follow-up to 2018 ‘s Pinned and will be capped by a world tour in early 2022.
“‘End of the Night’ is the first written in collaboration with either of the new band members,” says Ackermann. “John sent me the drum track and challenged me to write a song over it. It sort of came about as a strange stream of consciousness and unknowingly became about the end of the former band and the beginning of the new one. Each layer of the song stripping away the dead skin from the old and regrowing layer and layer of distortion of the new band. It’s great to be working again with John Fedowitz. I feel like our songwriting styles shot off in different directions from our earlier band Skywave only to come back to the table with different experiences to create something special again.”
A Place To Bury Strangers will host a screening of the Dedstrange SXSW Showcase this Friday, April 23rd at 7PM Eastern Time via the label’s Facebook and YouTube. It’s the first performance featuring the band’s new lineup, and other artists performing include Holy F–k, Randy Randall (No Age), Paul Jacobs (Pottery), Data Animal and Jealous.
