Onwards to the Wall

Onwards to the Wall packs every bit of the searing sonic maelstrom listeners have come to expect (nay, demand!) from Brooklyn's a Place to Bury Strangers. Yet, the adroit song craft that's always been there is brought more the fore, pop hooks are repurposed and more instantly recognizable. Now joined by bassist Dion Lunadon, formerly of the D4, Ackerman has found a crucial companion in pulling timeless melodies from their jet engine textures.
