[still from “Frustrated Operator” video]

A Place To Bury Strangers’ new album, Pinned, will be released this Friday, April 13th via Dead Oceans. To celebrate, they’re sharing a new single, “Frustrated Operator,” along with an accompanying video by Sophie Kadow. It follows the previously released singles, “There’s Only One Of Us” and “Never Coming Back,” and comes ahead of the start of the band’s world tour beginning with a hometown release show at Elsewhere in Brooklyn this Thursday, April 12th.

For well over a decade now, A Place to Bury Strangers— Oliver Ackermann,Dion Lunadon, and, officially, drummer Lia Simone Braswell—have become well known for their unwavering commitment to unpredictable, often bewildering live shows, and total, some might say dangerous volume. They don’t write setlists. They frequently write new songs mid-set. They deliberately provoke and sabotage sound people in a variety of cruel yet innovative ways. They can and will always surprise you.

Pinned, the band’s fifth full-length, finds A Place To Bury Strangers converting difficult moments into some of their most urgent work to date. It’s their first since the 2016 election, and their first since the 2014 closing of Death By Audio, the beloved Brooklyn DIY space where Ackerman lived, worked, and created with complete freedom. It’s a clear and honest statement of intent, not just for everything that follows, but for this band as a whole.
