by | Jun 19, 2014

Captain, this whole ship is sinking!  Better makes sure you take a copy of My Iron Lung’s upcoming album Relief when you evacuate. No need to hold your breath for too long though, it comes out in just a couple weeks.

A highly anticipated album from this San Diego band, they’ll be setting sail next month with Hundredth and Counterparts supporting the 10-track effort, which gets put out on July 8th.

Here’s a new song from the group called “In Defense of Drowning.” And for fun, we’ve also included a stream of their 2012 EP, Grief.
