After 2021’s stellar Blood In The Water (New Granada Records), the New York outfit returns with its first new music for 2022, “Bottom Feeder – V1.” The band carefully delivers hints of the new album it’s working on with a track that harnesses the band’s prowess with delicate precision. The song is filled with washes of Drew DeMaio’s & vocalist Krista Diem’s guitars throughout, beautiful melodies and vocal harmonies, as well as David Diem’s precise bottom end accentuated by the direct pummeling of Richard Salino.

About the song the band’s David Diem says: 

”The single, ‘Bottom Feeder – V1,’ addresses resentment, addiction, and the figurative sleep of a dysfunctional family. It’s also about the result of not getting out of your own way and the self-destruction that can result from being unable to see outside of yourself.” 

LAPÊCHE has also announced several northeast tour dates with post-hardcore vets Chamberlain. The upcoming tour will include shows at the Knitting Factory Brooklyn on April 20, Cambridge’s Middle East on April 21 and Asbury Park’s Wonder Bar on April 22. Tickets will be on sale this Friday (order).
