Album Release Show for
Tearist Living: 2009-Present LP
@ Vacation
Over the last two years Tearist has become one of the most notorious and vital bands in the new underground pulsing through Los Angeles. Building on songs driven by intense vocals and synths, the duo’s performances are known for being deeply physical and direct events. Yasmine Kittles sings from the depths of her body/soul and moves in a near-transfixed state, using scrap metals to scrape rhythm from the ground beneath her. All the while, as if telepathically linked, William Stangeland uses sputtering, cracked synthesizers to create shimmering melodic lines along rumbling interlocked beats and rhythms. Their songs flow and surge, building thick layers of analog sound and noise, often leaving wrecked PA’s in their wake.
On the heels of the band’s recent 12” EP issued by No Age’s PPM label, Thin Wrist Recordings is proud to release Tearist’s first full-length album, Tearist Living: 2009-Present.
