Algiers - "Void" , Adult Swim Singles



 




Adult Swim Singles have just shared a new song by Algiers as the fifth entry in the 2019-2020 program. Shared in advance of their hotly anticipated third album 'There is No Yea'r (out January 17, "Void" is Algiers at their visceral, powerhouse peak – a three-minute adrenaline-surge of hypnotic and infectious breakneck fury, with Matt Tong’s galloping drums, guitarist Lee Tesche’s sound shards, and multi-instrumentalist Ryan Mahan’s inventive bass work coming together around frontman Franklin James Fisher’s feverish recitation: 'Got to find a way to get out of it!' It expands on the doom-laden soul of their foundation, toward a vaster, genre-reformatting sound, one somehow suspended in the amber of "a different era," as described by Tesche. In conjunction with the new track the band are helming an Instagram Story takeover of the Adult Swim account - check it out at @AdultSwim.
