*[press release] Celebrated New York rock band HOPEWELL will release an EP of new material titled Another Music on September 11 via Tee Pee Records. The first single from the new effort is a cover of Brian Eno's "Needle In The Camel's Eye" featuring Mark Gardener of eternally cool, seminal shoegaze band RIDE on lead vocals. A deluxe 7" single of the track will come bundled with an EP of five new tracks that "explore HOPEWELL's noisy '90's roots as well as its more recent penchant for cinematic kraut rock sculptures." Today, self-titled premieres "Needle in the Camel's Eye", calling the track "a faithful, frenetic cover." Check out HOPEWELL featuring RIDE's Mark Gardener and the artists' take on the Brian Eno classic now HERE!

*[consequenceofsound.net] As previously reported, Crypts is the new project of These Arms Are Snakes vocalist Steve Snere, programmer Bryce Brown, and visual artist Nick Bartoletti. In July, the trio premiered the eerie “Territories”, a single from their debut self-titled album. And today, with a little over a week before the album hits shelves, the entire eight-track effort is streaming below. As evidenced by the lead-off track, the LP is a synth-heavy blend of glitchy gloom-pop, heavy on the bass and the post-hardcore sensibilities, with stand-out tracks including “Daft” and “Smut”.
Crypts lands in stores on September 4th via Sargent House.
