Male Bonding gives us a peek into the new album, Endless Now, with a free download of the first single, “Bones,” along with a glimpse of the band’s recording session via video and a bevy of tour dates that will take them ‘round the world and back to London.
Part shoe rock, part punk gaze, or whatever obscure subgenre reference you want to throw in with the bath water, Male Bonding comes at you with a concoction that’s part adrenaline, hammering drum kit, and series of pedals, that’s then shaken with a creamy overlay of vocals that kiss the ear drums lovingly.
Endless Now, which Sub Pop Records releases on August 30, was birthed at the aptly named Dreamland Recording Studio in Woodstock, N.Y. and produced by John Angello, who has also played a part in Thurston Moore and Dinosaur Jr. projects. His influence is definitely felt, as you’ll see when you hear “Bones,” the new free download. The video gives us a tiny look into what took place and to hear a bit of another song from Endless, “Before It’s Gone.”
