THOMAS GILES Releasing “Velcro Kid” Album

by Ryan Minic | Sep 16, 2016

We love us some Thomas Giles, aka the solo project from Tommy Rogers of Between The Buried And Me. So much to where we put his album Pulse on our Best 11 Releases of 2011. And his 2014 record Modern Noise was pretty lit too. Guess what? He’s got a new album called Velcro Kid on the way.

Velcro Kid is his third solo effort, and was co-produced and mixed by former Animals As Leaders drummer Navene Koperweis. It features additional mixing by longtime collaborator Jamie King, along with guest vocals by Devin Townsend and Jake Troth.

This album also sees Tommy teaming up with Sumerian Records for the release.

Here’s his new song “Strangers in a Paranoid Mind”

Velcro Kid comes out November 4th.
