Watch the video for the album’s opening track, “Nobody’s,” below. Scroll down for the Los Angeles post-hardcore band’s upcoming tour dates (featuring support from Soul Glo, Portrayal of Guilt, and Soft Blue Shimmer).
“‘Nobody’s’ is the opening track on our upcoming album, Spiral in a Straight Line. In just a handful of lyrics, it gives the broad strokes of the album,” Touché Amoré vocalist Jeremy Bolm stated in a press release. “A song and record about forward movement while everything around you becomes destabilized.”
Touché Amoré recorded Spiral in a Straight Line with producer Ross Robinson. Guests on the new album include Boygenius’ Julien Baker and Dinosaur Jr.’s Lou Barlow.
