San Diego grind-core-punk-rockers - oh whatever, mould your own pigeonhole - The Locust have announced details of their new album.
New Erections is to be released, through Anti, on March 19. It's the follow-up to 2003's Plague Soundscapes, an album that - if memory serves - received a 10/10 review in NME of all places. Unless I imagined that. I didn't, did I?
Says the band of their new long-player (but just how long is it?): "We don’t want to limit our art in any way, shape or form. We like the challenge of reaching those who would not naturally stumble upon us, or those who are not accepting of what we do."
Does this mean they've gone pop!? New Erections was produced by Alex Newport, and features songs that last for over two minutes. Wow.
Wow!
Songs that last OVER 2 minutes?! Looking forward to checking this out yeah!
fudge tunnel alex newport?
...oh wow... class! but i bet they do ballads now.
Oh yes
this will be so so great. Safety Second Body Last was incredible.
The best thing about The Locust
Is that you can listen to entire albums during the ad breaks of a tv program.
Consolidation loans have never been as gripping.
I love them but...
i think it <i>is</i> time for them to change the tune. 'Safety Second Body Last' has been my personal favourite of all their releases.
You're correct
about the 10/10 review. I remember reading that and thinking SPOT ON! Can't wait for the new one.
Here's hoping there's a tour...
over 2 minutes?
wow.
*droooooooooooools*
