Last year, Anthony Green (Circa Survive, Saosin, The Sound of Animals Fighting), Frank Iero (My Chemical Romance), Travis Stever (Coheed & Cambria), and Thursday's rhythm section (Tim Payne and Tucker Rule) formed L.S. Dunes and released their excellent debut album Past Lives, which had elements of all of the individual members' classic 2000s-era albums without sounding like any one of them in particular. L.S. Dunes are currently gearing up for a tour with Pinkshift, and ahead of that, they've released a new single, "Benadryl Subreddit." This one starts out riffy stoner rock, with Anthony in full-on yelling mode, and it culminates in a soaring chorus where Anthony embraces his more ethereal side. And for artists who have always operated on their own terms, it reads like a mission statement. "Don't do it just because you think you should/You don't owe anybody anything/You're better off when you are honest," Anthony wails, before a repeated refrain of "We won't go back ever again." Check out the song and its video below.
L.S. Dunes and Pinkshift's tour hits NYC on July 17 at Irving Plaza. All dates are listed below.
Anthony Green is also doing a full-band solo tour and Thursday are touring soon too.
