A Place To Bury Strangers have just announced the details regarding their forthcoming release, Worship. The record is out June 26 via Dead Oceans. The band will also be extensively touring in 2012, so check out their dates and the details surrounding Worship after the jump.
Expect the album to be explosive, visceral, and dark. A Place To Bury Strangers have always been masters of the sonic tones, but Worship should take things to a new level.
Here’s what Lunadon had to say of the album:
The album was written, recorded, mixed and mastered by A Place To Bury Strangers. It is our vision of what our music should sound like in 2012, not someone else’s interpretation. Every sound on the album is made by us and our tools; tools created by us, used on no other recordings, and purposefully built for this project. This is real. Some of it is the band being in complete control – bending, shaping and building the songs and the sounds. Other parts are the band relinquishing control and letting the songs and sounds take over and produce themselves. We are not trying to reinvent ourselves, but simply push ourselves further in all aspects of our music.
And here’s what Ackerman added:
We made this, we recorded this, we did everything. Yes, we chose to do this and no, we didn’t have to but we think it is pretty cool. No producer made us. We didn’t go to school for any of this and we don’t have time for tutorials. We invented this and now we are sharing it with you.
