The Superweaks are now streaming their new album Better Heavens in full on Bandcamp. Better Heavens is the band’s sophomore album and follow up to Bad Year, set to be released on November 4th on Lame-O Records. In celebration of the stream, The Superweaks have just announced their headlining tour this fall. The band will also be touring with Modern Baseball and Thin Lips in the UK and Europe starting January 2017. A full list of dates can be found below.
Better Heavens sees some sonic experimentation from The Superweaks, carrying on some of the pop and guitar-rock from their last release, but also finding more dynamic moments throughout. The band softens on track “Diamond Mind,” experiments with synths and vocal effects on “Oh God (We’re All So Miserable Now)” and adds some atmospheric heaviness with “Heavy Dreams” and “Junkie’s Gone To Heaven,” while still delivering great pop hooks on songs like “Better Heavens” and “Glowing.”
