Emerging Toronto noise rockers Accelerant have announced the upcoming release of their self-titled debut album, previewed today by the lead single "Sleeper."
Arriving October 1 through Cooked Raw, the seven-track LP sees the band draw on influences like Primal Scream, the Butthole Surfers and Sonic Youth. These touchstones are readily apparent on the album's lead track, but the filth-recognizing quartet bring their own contemporary take to the sediment-covered foundations laid by their predecessors.
Accelerant will celebrate the arrival of "Sleeper" — which you can hear below — with a pay-what-you-can release show tonight at Ted's Collision with support from Happy99. You can also catch them live at Project Nowhere in October.
ACCELERANT:
1. Sleeper
2. Eclipse in the Mist
3. Bring Down the Club
4. Dark Age Ahead
5. Dejected Generation
