• Limited Edition 2 LP PINK Vinyl

For well over a decade now, A Place to Bury Strangers has become well known for their unwavering commitment to unpredictable, often bewildering live shows, and total, some might say dangerous volume. Pinned, their fifth full-length album, finds the band converting difficult moments into some of their most urgent work to date. It's their first since the 2016 election, and their first since the 2014 closing of Death By Audio, the beloved Brooklyn DIY space where guitarist/singer Oliver Ackermann lived, worked, and created with complete freedom. There are searing meditations on truth and government-led conspiracies ("Execution"), as well as haunting, harmonized responses to the tensions of our current political climate ("There's Only One of Us"). It all opens with "Never Coming Back," a frightening crescendo of group vocals, vertiginous guitar work, and Dion Lunadon's unrelenting bass. It's a clear and honest statement of intent, not just for everything that follows, but for the band as a whole.
