Pity Sex have been touring like crazy since the release of their 2013 debut album Feast of Love, which feels like it came out a lot more than two years ago. But now they’re finally ready to follow it with album number two, called White Hot Moon, in the spring of 2016 via Run for Cover. Lead single “What Might Soothe You?” is more or less in the same shoegazy realm as their last album, with production that’s a bit bigger this time around. Listen below (via NPR).

Pity Sex’s current tour schedule includes two NYC shows during CMJ: the Car Wash show with Destruction Unit, Perfect Pussy, Porches, Protomartyr, Sheer Mag and more; and the RFC showcase with Makthaverskan, Crying, Petal and more. They also play a Fun Fun Fun Fest Nites show in Austin. All dates below.
