THUS LOVE RELEASE NEW ALBUM ‘ALL PLEASURE’
Today Brattleboro, Vermont breakthrough outfit THUS LOVE releases the highly anticipated sophomore album ‘All Pleasure’ out now! ]
All Pleasure was recorded as live as possible, with a bare minimum of overdubs, capturing the sheer infectious ecstasy that comes from a group of people sharing space together, making a divine racket, mixed by Matthew Hall and Rich Costey (on “Birthday Song”, “All Pleasure”, and “Get Stable”) and mastered by Bob Weston.
The album came out of a period of dizzying growth and transformation for the group. When they began work on it, vocalist/guitarist Echo Mars (they/them) and drummer Lu Racine (he/him) were still reeling from the runaway success of their 2022 debut full-length, Memorial—a set of lush, elegant post-punk that brought praise from The FADER, NME, and The Guardian, plus a leap from quiet Brattleboro to stages across the US and UK—along with processing the departure of founding bassist Nathaniel van Osdol.
Meanwhile, new bassist Ally Juleen (she/they) and guitarist/keyboardist Shane Blank (he/him), longtime musical partners, had uprooted their lives to relocate to small-town Vermont and join a band that was a month away from recording the follow-up to a cultishly adored album.
Listen to the album now and get tickets for their upcoming US and 2025 dates, including a run supporting The Vaccines that kicks off in mid-January, some headline shows, and additional March/April EU/UK shows.
