New Sasquatch 7″ Available to Preorder
Want to do some fun math? Here’s one for you: 2017 means it’s now been more than a decade since Los Angeles heavy rockers Sasquatch released their landmark second album, II (discussed here). Their self-titled debut? Yeah, it turns out 2004 was 13 years ago. III (review here) came out in 2010, and even IV (review here) turns four later this year. Maybe those numbers don’t astound you — and if not, congratulations on your enduring awareness of the passage of time — but it seems to me that as the three-piece move toward another European tour that will find them at Stoned from the Underground, SonicBlast Moledo and Red Smoke this summer in addition to their previously-announced slot at Psycho Las Vegas, it’s time to start giving these dudes the respect they deserve as veterans of the scene.
I guess I was still thinking of them as the same upstarts who kicked my ass with “Money Man” and “Chemical Lady” in summer ’04. Go figure. Astute observation: I am old.
They have a new single coming out on Red Sun Records called Rational Woman that’s available to preorder now and which I’m just going to assume tells the story of a lady making responsible career and personal decisions and leading a fulfilling and mindful existence of self-actualization and equal pay for equal work. That’s the assumption I’m making. It’s what I choose to believe. You believe whatever you want.
No audio yet to prove me wrong, but here’s art and info from the PR wire:
The crew here at Red Sun Records is excited to announce that we will be releasing a limited edition 7” from long-standing Los Angeles rockers, Sasquatch, on June 7th as a pre-launch to their upcoming European summer tour. The band, known for their massive riffage and magnificent out-of-the-90s melodies and powerful grooves, will be showcasing their first new material since releasing their fourth record (appropriately titled “IV”) back in 2013.
The Rational Woman 7” will be limited to a one-time print of 500 copies on black vinyl. Grab a copy before it’s too late because once they are gone, they are gone for good!!
Barcelona-based Red Sun Records will be exclusively releasing the album worldwide on June 7th. Pre-orders start today. Get it here: redsunrecordsbarcelona.bandcamp.com.
