Psalm Zero have unleashed a cover of Anohni’s “Atrocities”, take it in below courtesy of CLRVYNT. The song is also available for download via the embedded Soundcloud player. Guitarist/vocalist Charlie Looker said of the cover:
“‘Atrocities’ is an older Anohni track, from her debut record as Antony & the Johnsons. Anohni is one of my all-time musical heroes, an absolute colossus. I’ve covered several of her songs in informal live solo acoustic settings, but this song seemed the most appropriate for a Psalm Zero treatment. The lyrics are bone-chilling to me, especially in this current political and social climate where we’re reassessing the weight of various violent histories, as well as facing a new rise of fascist ideology and sentiment worldwide. As for the future, I’m bracing myself, trying to be ready for anything.”
The group have also announced new tour dates, beginning with a one-off, hometown show on December 7th with Helen Money and Bambara. The group will then hit the road in early 2017 for a U.S. winter trek.
