It’s been a solid decade since Portland’s we-get-to-say-we-were-here-first heavy rock traditionalists Danava released their last full-length, Hemisphere of Shadows, but as they look to follow-up their 2016 single, “At Midnight You Die” (review here), the band announce their new record, Nothing But Nothing, will be the manner in which they do so. That’s sure to elicit shrieks of joy from the Pacific Northwest and any number of other places that have people with ears, and it leads to the inevitable question of when or whether the band will get back on the road. They’ve invariably played whichever is your favorite festival, and they’ve done no shortage of tour-time over their near-20 years, so what the hell. Could happen, right?

I’ve been wondering when Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats are going to announce their own album and tour, both of which were originally booked for 2020. Danava have been out with them any number of times across the US, so a re-pairing doesn’t seem completely out of line. I guess we’ll find out eventually.

No release date or anything — the album isn’t recorded yet — but they’ll apparently do a new EP too. No argument.

They delivered word via Instagram:
