Blaqk Audio return with 4th album

Posted in Records on January 20, 2019

Blaqk Audio return with the new album Only Things We Love on March 15. The band, which features AFI's Davey Havok and Jade Puget, 

has threee albums to date, most recently 2016's Material.

Speaking of the new record, Havok says:

It feels starkly different. Because we were so happy with the many  songs we wrote, the track listing continued to change up until a few weeks before it went to press. In the end, the futurepop elements of Blaqk Audio have a greater representation on this album than they did on the last. Synthpop and electropop still make up most of the record, yet these tracks have a uniquely modern feel. While even dancier than Material, Only Things We Love offers a dreamy quality less present on any previous release.

The band will be on tour this March, starting off in San Diego on March 14. Listen to new track "The Viles" below.
