The first single to see release from WATERTANK's impending sophomore LP Destination Unknown is now streaming at American Aftermath, as the French outfit prepares or the album's release through Solar Flare Records next month.
With a cranked-up but not over-the-top delivery,
WATERTANK churns out a sleek, hook-laden style of noise rock-inclined melodic
Hardcore in the vicinity of acts like
Torche,
Quicksand, Jawbox, Sense Field and Failure. Recorded by Patrice Guillerme (Papier Tigre, Patriotic Sunday) and mastered by Carl Saff (
Coliseum, Pilot To Gunner), Destination Unknown showcases the band's revamped lineup delivering thirty-three minutes of brand new, prime material, and while the album came together rather quickly, being composed and recorded with unusually short notice, cohesively reveals a more confident band through this new batch of strongly crafted songs. The fourth of its
Nine tracks, "DCVR" now becomes part of the public
Domain courtesy of an exclusive premiere through American Aftermath, who states, "The upcoming offering boasts
Nine new tracks full of sludge-ridden post-hardcore that doesn't skimp on the thunderous instrumentation or the ridiculously catchy hook," then continuing, "The down-tuned jam trudges along with pummeling riffs that drip with melody and calls to mind the likes of
Torche and Quicksand. If that gets you excited, then feel free to
Stream the track..."
