Strike Anywhere struck with news of Nightmares of the West, a 7-song EP that will release on July 17 on Pure Noise Records. It's the band's first new material since 2009. The EP features six new originals and a Blocko cover.
Always known for their political take, the band keeps that emphasis going in the new decade.
“We wanted to write things that we felt really fresh about and that revealed something new,” explains vocalist Thomas Barnett. “It was almost like this refresh, this restart, where we found ways to write songs that not only moved us, but also reflected the times and our ages. But we definitely feel inspired, and this record is a platform for us to hopefully – in time – play shows, connect with community, and help keep those little fires lit in ourselves and in others through the music and those shared experiences. These songs are the conversations that we want to have and the feelings that we still really need to share.”
