Touche Amore streaming new album, 'Is Survived By' (listen)

by Andrew Sacher

Is Survived By

As discussed, Touche Amore‘s third full length, Is Survived By comes out next week (9/24) via Deathwish Inc. The breakneck rhythms and impassioned screams of their last two records are still fully intact, but on Is Survived By, the band expand their sound, adding underlying post rock atmospheres, a fuller, more dynamically diverse sound, and longer (but not dragging) songs. It’s their most ambitious and best record yet, and a strong argument that honest, emotional punk isn’t going anywhere. The band are currently streaming the album in full ahead of its release, and you can listen over at Pitchfork.

Touche Amore’s tour with AFI hits NYC for a sold-out show at Webster Hall on October 10, and a day earlier, they headline a sold-out BV-presented show at 285 Kent (10/19) with Geoff Rickly’s United Nations and The Saddest Landscape.

Touche Amore – “Just Exist”

Touche Amore – “Harbor”
