The Antlers Tour This Fall on Material From Their Upcoming Release Hospice
EPK w/ Free Downloads, Photos, Bio etc: THE ANTLERS
"Peter Silberman pegs Eluvium and My Bloody Valentine as influences, but if he keeps making records like In the Attic of the Universe (he has five so far), he'll be counting the influenced soon."-Time Out NY
This fall The Antlers are leaving their Brooklyn homes and heading out into the wilds of the Midwest, South, and Northeast. The tour comes as a celebration of the completion of Hospice, the first full-length The Antlers have completed since Peter Silberman chose to transform his solo endeavor into a full band. (Previously, "The Antlers" referred solely to Silberman's solo work, which included 2007's In the Attic of the Universe.)
The new release marks a maturing of The Antlers' sound. Whereas In the Attic of the Universe traded on sweet melodies and lullaby-like subtlety, Hospice skews much darker and much more poignant. Silberman's eye for nuance is still as sharp, but the benefit of his supporting musicians, and intensely personal subject matter allow Hospice to become a deeper and more fleshed-out journey than its predecessor. The result is at once engaging, unsettling, and moving.
The record features Peter Silberman on vocals, guitars, keyboards, and harp, with Justin Stivers on bass, Darby Cicci on trumpet, Michael Lerner on drums, and Sharon Van Etten on closing vocals.
Hospice will be seeing release in the near future (Details TBA). Until that time, The Antlers have made a song from the record available for free download in their EPK above. DONT MISS THEM LIVE!
