Remember that band Puig Destroyer, the baseball-themed grindcore project featuring members of Thrice, Curl Up and Die, and Kowloon Walled City? The band put out a couple of EPs last year that gained them lots of attention — and Yasiel Puig himself said it was “very good.”
We posted a couple weeks ago about Thrice and the possibility that they may be ending their hiatus in the near future. In a recent Reddit AMA frontman Dustin Kensrue said a tour of some kind is “very, very likely” and that he suspects new music will be recorded in the future. When? No one knows for sure yet, but perhaps this is a precursor for their return.
You may or may not remember the interview we did with Thrice, but we got intimate with them in 2011. Guitarist Teppei Teranishi and drummer Riley Breckenridge told us about the time they played at a Sea World parking lot and one of their first tours ever with Cave In. How bummed we were when they went on hiatus.
You don’t have to wait for spring to hear the new Puig Destroyer EP.
Another new track from Puig Destroyer (Thrice, ex-Curl Up and Die, & Kowloon Walled City) has been released online.
