Los Angeles-based dark punk band THE WRAITH will release their Mat Mitchell-produced debut full-length, Gloom Ballet, through Southern Lord Recordings on November 29th, the label this week unveiling the album’s track listing, cover art, and new details on the album. The news comes just days ahead of the band’s performance at LA Dark Fest this weekend.
THE WRAITH‘s Gloom Ballet delivers twelve infectious tracks drenched in the band’s ’80s UK post-punk (Death Cult, Killing Joke, Chameleons) and SoCal deathrock (T.S.O.L., Samhain) influences. Recorded by Pucifer guitarist/producer Mat Mitchell, Gloom Ballet was mastered at Audiosiege by Brad Boatright (From Ashes Rise, Tragedy, Alaric) and the artwork was handled by Rebecca Sauve.
Gloom Ballet will see release through Southern Lord on November 29th. See the track listing and artwork below and watch for audio premieres from Gloom Ballet to be issued in the days ahead.
