Montreal-based post-punks Ought caught our ear with their debut LP More Than Any Other Day and followed it up with an EP called Once More with Feeling. Now the arty oddball crew are ready to return with a proper sophomore album — and you can stream it a week before its official release.
Sun Coming Down features previously heard cuts "Beautiful Blue Sky" and "Men For Miles" along with six other solid cuts that showcase the band's obvious appreciation for a Talking Heads-ish brand of rock, but also hear them developing their own exciting sound.
Sun Coming Down is due out on September 18, but you can give it an early listen in the player below right now via Constellation Records. Scroll past Ought's upcoming tour dates to give it a spin.
