Smokes

'Wayne Death' (album stream)

BY Sarah MurphyPublished Oct 6, 2017

Montreal post-punks Smokes prefaced their latest record with the teaser single "4souls" earlier this year, but now you can hear the band's Wayne Death in its entirety.
 
The dark, brooding "weirdo pop" sensibilities heard on the previously shared song carry over throughout the new LP, blending Nick Maas' baritone vocals with dreamy synthscapes ("Princess"), screeching guitars ("Iodine," "SLOB") and plenty of distortion ("Porn," "Lich").
 
Hear it all smash together in a delightfully intoxicating mix of noisy garage rock by streaming Wayne Death down below. The album is officially out on October 13.
