New York City electronic post-punk trio Public Circuit today releases their next single ‘To The Grave‘. It’s a slice of melancholic electro-pop from their upcoming album Modern Church set for release on 12 September 12 via à La Carte Records. ‘To The Grave’ intensely twinkles and crashes as the band reels against the parts of themselves they refuse to push back down. The band explains further:
“Life is frail – Many people live a life where they never fully resolve trauma, hatred, etc., and, therefore, take it to the grave with them. Whether it be childhood trauma, gender expression / exploration, or failed romances; this song is inspired by moments left unresolved or, otherwise, unspoken.”
The video sees the band quite literally digging their own graves, while employing their signature Medieval elements throughout.
Earlier this month, the band announced their second LP with the release of ‘Samson’. Taking aim at fragile masculinity, the song was named after the character of Abrahamic mythology known for superhuman strength and a betrayal that led to his downfall.
This autumn the band will set out on their newly announced tour of the US and Europe. While in Berlin, they will join the lineup of 8mm Festival alongside A Place To Bury Strangers and Snapped Ankles. And in the Netherlands, they will play Left Of The Dial festival. See all dates below.
