Sunglaciers Announce New LP 'Subterranea', Stream "Avoidance"

Calgary psych pop/post punk outfit Sunglaciers have announced the release of their sophomore album 'Subterranea'

Co-produced by Chad VanGaalen and mixed by Mark Lawson (Arcade Fire, Yves Jarvis, The Unicorns), the record will be available on March 25 through Mothland. Pre-order your copy here.

Like their name might suggest, Sunglaciers’ music blurs the boundaries between dazzling indie-rock melodicism and icy post-punk experimentation.

Subterranea comes in the form of a 13 song post-punk meets alternative-pop long-player that is sonically dense, yet easy on the eardrums.

Though Subterranea is anchored in strange realities from our times, this new effort from Resnik and Blanchard (the pair behind Sunglaciers) is also laced with a certain optimism, perhaps the work of well-calculated psychedelic elements and headbanging rhythms, making for a most-rewarding listening experience.

The band have also shared the video for their new single "Avoidance", an epic post-punk scorcher fueled by a restless drumbeat and an alarming synth hook, atop inhuman screams from Louis Cza (Roman66, The Black Greek God).
