Noise rockers HEALTH shared details for their 2015 tour. Recently featured on the Song Exploder podcast, the Los Angeles outfit comprised of Benjamin Jared Miller, Jake Duzsik, John Famiglietti, and Jupiter Keyes sets to hit the road in November, beginning with a few North American dates before heading to the UK. Known for their iconic remix of Crystal Castle's "Crimewave," the experimental four-piece released their third album Death Magic via Loma Vista earlier this month. Initially shared on NPR's First Listen, the LP faultlessly showcases the group's skilled instrumentation by way of synth punk precision. A quintessential listen for anyone fond of goth clubs, throbbing tempos, or dark romanticism, Death Magic effortlessly bridges the gap between dark wave revival and electro-industrial.
The much-anticipated follow up to 2009's Get Color, the band's latest release extends their already well-known penchant for crafting synth infused soundscapes. Death Magic, engineered by Lars Stalfors (known for his work with The Mars Volta) and Andrew Dawson who has worked with Kanye West, is definitively dark. Tracks like "New Coke" and "Flesh World" captivate listeners with brooding bass and buzzing backbeats. From beginning to end, the outfit's first studio album in over six years easily warrants subsequent replays. It can only be assumed that HEALTH's onstage performance will be just as memorable.
