Bruise Bath Announce New Self-Titled Album: Hear “Blood On My Tongue”

I always wonder about the acts who release multiple self-titled albums, the Peter Gabriels and Weezers and Rancids and American Footballs of the world. That must take a whole lot of self-confidence, right? Or maybe it's just a willingness to confuse your audience. Perhaps those two things are the same thing. Much to think about. Anyway, we can now add Philadelphian post-metal churners Bruise Bath to that list.Bruise Bath started a decade ago as a vehicle for singer/guitarist Zak Krone, and it slowly developed into a full band over the years. Bruise Bath developed their angular, insular, heavily pretty sound over a series of smaller releases and then dropped their self-titled full-length debut in 2017. The band's lineup has changed since then, and now they're ready to announce a second self-titled LP. Bruise Bath produced their own record, which I guess maybe we should call Bruise Bath II. Lead single "Blood On My Tongue" combines long stretches of muttery slowcore with occasional metallic flare-ups. Pretty interesting! Check out that song, the Bruise Bath II tracklist, and the band's upcoming East Coast tour dates below.TRACKLIST:01 "Cars On Fire"02 "Blood On My Tongue"03 "Nonconsensual Intervention"04 "(coda)"05 "Two Dogs Fucking"06 "To My Love From Your Forlorn"07 "Long Gone"08 "Pastoral Shrug"TOUR DATES:7/30 - New York, NY @ Cobra Club7/31 - Boston, MA @ O'Brien's8/01 - New London, CT @ 33 Golden St 8/02 - Pawtucket, RI @ The News Cafe8/03 - Westfield, MA @ Hutghi's At The Nook8/05 - Binghamton, NY @ Bundy Museum Annex8/06 - Akron, OH @ Musica8/07 - Pittsburgh, PA @ The Station8/08 - Reading, PA @ PleasuretoneBruise Bath is out 11/6 on Strange Mono.Diane
