Release Date: 29th September 2017
The emo/post-rock Connecticut-bred collective with the ever expanding and contracting line-up bring us their third and most powerful record to date. The band create sweeping widescreen post-rock with the heavy influence of emo worn proud on their sleeves. Their music is a deeply emotional experience that builds from quietly delicate undercurrents into rushing waves of powerful heartfelt harmony. Always Foreign confronts everything from the opioid epidemic to xenophobia to emotional abuse in relationships. The record was recorded in the wake of Trump being elected which resulted in the band and in particular the vocalist and lyricist David F Bello writing a lot about resistance thinking which addresses not only the Trump administration but overarching issues from white supremacy to controlling elements of the state. If you are yet to delve into the wonderful world of TWIABP&IANLATD then this is the perfect place to start!
