This week, Bay area aggressors Deafheaven announced their highly-anticipated full length follow up to their acclaimed 2021 release, Infinite Granite. Revealing the caustic first single, "Magnolia" the band confirmed the March 28th arrival of Lonely People With Power.
Recorded with producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen [St. Vincent, M83] and mixed by Zach Weeks of GodCity Studio, Lonely People With Power follows Deafheaven's MO of expanding the boundaries of heavy music - as first evidenced on Infinite Granite. For the band's next installment, additional contributions from Jae Matthews of Boy Harsher and Paul Banks of Interpol position the band's next effort as arguably their most ambitious.
