With a reliable blend of aggro noise and heavy groove — and they’re from Boston! go figure! — Death Pesos return next month with new single given the title Couch Glue. While there’s a big part of me that wants to imagine that the song is about Star Trek: Deep Space Nine seasons four through seven, I doubt that’s actually where they’re coming from. Still, anyone who heard their Drug Worship single (posted here) last year knows they’ve got potential, and having heard the new tracks — that is, “Couch Glue” itself and its six-minute B-side, “Evil Eye” — I can affirm that’s still very much the case.

Info came down the PR wire for your perusal and calendar marking:

Death Pesos is releasing a new single, “Couch Glue”, on 4/6/18.

The song was recorded with Alex Garcia-Rivera (American Nightmare, Piebald) at his Mystic Valley Recording Studio in Medford, MA, straight to 24 track, 2 inch tape, like the gods intended.

This is a heavy, fuzzy slab of rock n’ roll for those who insist on leaving their physical reality behind. For those who prefer indica. For those raised by the Super Mario Brothers. And especially for those who just can’t quite seem to get up off the couch to turn the record over.

Death Pesos hearkens back to the golden age of dinosauric riffs and gelatinous, sludgy yet sturdy rhythms. Like a time machine to that unbelievable show you saw back in ’71, if only you could remember the band’s name through the haze of smoke and years gone by.

Featuring cover art by Massachusetts luminary Sean Watroba, the heavy eyelids, perma-smirk and crimson tinted ocular orbs say it all.

Spin this one on repeat and you’ll be glued to your couch ’til next time.

* Features “Evil Eye” as the B-side, a cautionary tale of government surveillance and poisonous, all-seeing robots taking up real estate in your mind
