Blaenavon are celebrating inking a North American deal by sharing brand new indie-pop cut "My Bark Is Your Bite".
Earthy vocals quiver and cavort with gothic synths, and it's eerie and enticing in equal measure, drawing you in with total brilliance at every turn - "My Bark Is Your Bite" is a bittersweet jewel built from blueprints to make you bawl while you dance. Morose pop at its finest.
The trio are also marking their new deal with Canvasback/Atlantic by playing two dates in NYC (after they wrap up their current UK jaunt, that is).
Blaenavon will be playing New York City in early November - find all their upcoming shows.
