In October, post-hardcore supergroup the Sound Of Animals Fighting — who carry out underneath animal names corresponding to “The Nightingale” and “The Lynx,” and many others — introduced plans to launch their first new music since 2008’s The Ocean And The Sun, plus a January tour. Originally fashioned in 2004, the band options members from RX Bandits, LS Dunes, and Circa Survive, they usually’re set to launch a brand new EP, APESHIT, on December 8 through Born Losers Records. Ahead of the EP’s launch, the band has shared its bonkers, positively blistering title monitor.
“‘APESHIT’ is equal parts renewal and the culmination of all that came before,” the Nightingale (aka Rich Balling) says. “A revival of spirit while maintaining the integrity of the key ingredients and processes that have always made this project a rewarding outlet for us. It is our best work.”
