Pity Sex: Feast of Love

Feast of Love cover art
 
Feast of Love is the new Run For Cover Records album from Ann Arbor rockers Pity Sex. The band of Sean St. Charles,  Brennan Greaves,  Britty Drake and  Brandan Pierce meld together influences from alt rock, post-punk and shoegaze to deliver a darkish album with a mild lo-fi aesthetic. The ten tracks have a compelling sound with a distinctive muffled vibe, present yet removed. The songs are radio ready alt rock affairs, but with an edge and desperation that is often missing from radio ready type tracks. This is an album of layers and one needs to sit down and listen closely to start peeling them back. Stream and buy Feast of Love at the link below.
