Megalodon - Alice Drills COMING 9|10|21

In late February 2020, through Midriff Records, we put out our 8th release, "Slightest of Treason," an album inspired in part by the shift toward conservative dogma in US politics. The Band planned supporting the release with live shows starting with our record release party at Great Scott in Boston in mid/late March. By mid March the live music scene was dead, most media outlets were stymied, clubs were shuttered, radio was figuring out how to broadcast remotely and "Slightest of Treason" was lost in the chaos and shuffle created by the initial months of the pandemic. With an abundance of time on our hands we got back into Bluetone Studios (owned and operated by David Grabowski) and started to safely work on the "Slightest of Treason" follow up. The product of which was 25 plus new tracks for an as yet untitled album with a more relaxed, contemplative sound accompanied by lyrics that reflect the past year-plus we all experienced.

The Megalodon single ("B-Side"; Alice Drills) release is the first single from these sessions. We plan on releasing a bunch more singles leading up to a full length release sometime late 2021/early 2022.

So, we are super excited to release ER’s newest offering, Megalodon/Alice Drills. The Single is still that moody post-punk that is broadly political and decidedly intimate. Sonically familiar while pushing pop's potential to be noisy. Looser and more accessible than prior releases. As Always, Never dull.
