Texas post-rock group This Will Destroy You might be a bit slow in getting their new album out, the one that was finished in January this year and still doesn’t have a release date, but what they lack in forward momentum in that department, they certainly make up for in touring stamina. 54 dates across the U.S. and Europe, starting beginning of august and stretching to the middle of October. What does that level of travelling do to a person? Do you even remain a person? Do you become some kind of fetid half beast that lives by absorbing sunlight and licking moisture from the eyeballs of young groupies? Do you even require nutrients at all, your god-like rock&roll intensity having reached such a peak to make a 54 show tour physically possible? Scary stuff.
The gig is at Magnet club.
Here’s part one of a two track single just released called Moving on the Edges of Things:
