The band, featuring Dan Boeckner (Wolf Parade, Handsome Furs, Divine Fits), Devojka, and Sam Brown (Divine Fits, New Bomb Turks), previously shared the first single “Faithless” and the video for album track “I Feel Emotion”. Radiant Dawn is currently featured as Stereogum's “Album of the Week”, who said “it's music for a nightclub in a moon colony. It's music for a retro-futuristic recreation of an Eastern Europe metropolis that never quite existed. It's music for an encroaching dystopia.” LA Weekly similarly anointed the album, saying “the first hints of greatness came with the release ofEP1 in 2014, followed by the debut full-length, Blue Wave, two years later. But it's the majesty of the 14 songs that fill Radiant Dawn that show just how far this group has come.” Buy and stream Radiant Dawn HERE.
