ASG announce new album 'Survive Sunrise' & tour, share title track
North Carolina sludge staples ASG are following 2013’s Blood Drive with a new album, Survive Sunrise, on June 15 via Relapse. The title track is out now, and it’s pretty promising. It’s the perfect balance between psychedelia, melody, and aggression, and if you miss Kylesa, this should hit the spot. Listen and check out the tracklist below. That’s the very vivid artwork (which pairs well with this psychedelic song) above.
ASG will also be on tour for a while, including UK dates with Weedeater in May and US dates with Lo Pan and Beitthemeans in June. The US run includes a Brooklyn show on June 27 at Saint Vitus (tickets). All dates are listed below.
