Pianos Become the Teeth are releasing the Close 7″ this Saturday (4/18) for Record Store Day with “895” and “Dancing,” two unreleased tracks from the sessions for their great 2014 album, Keep You. The band have now shared “895,” which leans even more on their post-rock side than most of Keep You. The guitars are delicate and pretty, the vocals are somber, and the whole song is really worth listening to — it’s not some throwaway album outtake. Watch the video (dir. Tyler W. Davis) below, via AV Club.

The band’s previously-announced tour with Loma Prieta and Gates hits NYC on May 13 at Saint Vitus. Tickets for that show are still available. The band were also recently announced for Atlanta’s Wrecking Ball festival, which includes Descendents, Judge, Desaparecidos, The Get Up Kids, The Appleseed Cast and many more.
