SALEM, the Traverse CitylChicago-based trio of John Holland, Heather Marlatt,and Jack Donoghue are finally releasing their debut album King Night. Mixedby Dave Sardy, the album"s 11 tracks evoke certain elements of etherealshoegaze, withdrawn Houston Screw, and production qualities akin to thefrenetic delivery of contemporary Southern rap and Chicago footwork.Following a series of limited edition 7" singles released throughout 2008 and2009, the band"s notoriety transcended its esoteric online realm, garneringattention in The Fader, XLR8R, Blackbook, V Magazine and The New YorkTimes, along with art luminaries such as Terence Koh.Echoing the duality of the band"s urban and rural surroundings, King Night isat once menacing and serene. Projecting the dissonance of these themeswith a scope that blurs many genres, Salem have created a zeitgeist capturingalbum with some of the most beautifully visceral music of our time."King Night is huge in the most mind-blowing sense possible ...Best New Music" - Pitchfork.com"One of the most vast and unforgiving debut albums you"ll hearall year. ..they are the future." - NME"There aren"t enough adjectives to describe how huge the title trackKing Night is" - Prefix MagazineTRACKLIST01) King Night02) Asia03) Frost04) Sick05) Release Da Boar06) Trapdoor07) Redlights08) Hound09) Traxx10) Tair11) Kille
