The week kicks off excitingly with news about Pure Bathing Culture‘s forthcoming album, Moon Tides. It’s their first full-length, following up their splendid 2012 self-titled EP, and it’s due on August 20 on Partisan Records (in the UK, August 19 on Memphis Industries).
There’s also a new track to listen to—”Pendulum” just premiered this morning on Gorilla vs. Bear, but you can listen to it here. The track graced many of PBC’s hometown live shows last year, so it should sound pretty familiar. With Dan Hindman’s immaculately clean electric guitar and Sarah Versprille’s beautifully airy but distinct vocals, the track will also open the new album, which—like the self-titled EP—was recorded with Richard Swift at his Cottage Grove, Oregon, studio.
Here’s the tracklisting for Moon Tides; amazingly, it will not duplicate any of the incredible tracks from the EP:
1. Pendulum
2. Dream the Dare
3. Evergreener
4. Twins
5. Only Lonely Lovers
6. Scotty
7. Seven 2 One
8. Golden Girl
9. Temples of the Moon
Pure Bathing Culture plays the Wonder Ballroom this Saturday, May 25, opening for Father John Misty—AKA Josh Tillman, whose brother Zach plays bass in Pure Bathing Culture.
