A Place to Bury Strangers recently released a new album to the independent masses. Released on October 19, 2009, “Exploding Head” lives up to the independent music reviews that have praised APTBS as New York City’s “loudest band.” Their sound can simply be described as noise – a dissonant, melancholy vocal track laid over a screeching blend of guitars and ear-splitting cymbals. Think HEALTH meets New Order meets My Bloody Valentine.

Highly recommended for anyone into the noise-rock scene. Here is a link to preview the album through iTunes.
