Intercourse has today released their new video for the track titled ‘Family Suicide Gun’, from their new album ‘How I Fell In Love With The Void’, out now via Brutal Panda Records.
While ‘Family Suicide Gun’ is a good indicator for where ‘How I Fell In Love With The Void’ is as an album, the nuances and not-so-subtle dive into the hardcore void is an angst laden voyage left for the mind and something you definitely do not want to put on infinite repeat for anyone confined to a prison cell.
However you feel about the noise rock elements, you get caught in the moment when you feel that slick power run through your limbs as the music gets you ready for your day and helps define it. Just don’t do anything that will get you fired.
About Intercourse
The self-deprecating Intercourse – vocalist Tarek Ahmed, guitarist Sean Prior, drummer Caleb Porter and bassist Pete Stroczkowski – has averaged a release per year since forming in 2013, and has kicked against the pricks, power brokers, and pissants who make America “great” while tempering their outlook with a self-deprecating look inward.
Intercourse’s ‘How I Fell In Love With The Void’ delivers ten searing new tracks that merge elements of metallic hardcore into an antagonistic foundation of corrosive noise rock. The album was recorded by Chris Teti (The World Is A Beautiful Place And I Am No Longer Afraid To Die) at Silver Bullet Studios in Burlington, Connecticut. It was mastered by George Richter (Thy Will Be Done) and mixed by Chris Teti and Greg Thomas. The photograph on the album cover was shot by Sherilyn Furneaux (Portrayal Of Guilt) and features exotic dancer Clementine.
With the “Family Suicide Gun” video, Ahmed states, “We got really into documenting shows and shit after I bought a Hi-8 camera so we could do the video for ‘Where Losers Go To Die,’ so the natural progression was for us to get a GoPro. Then I got the genius idea to have everyone film themselves tracking with it so we’d have a cheap and easy video. Also, the vibes at Silver Bullet are immaculate, so why not? The song itself is about the hell of capitalism and how people work themselves to death only to retire, if they’re lucky, with the best years of their lives in the rear view. We got the title from a Reddit post about a literal cursed gun that took out multiple members of the same family.”
Intercourse commemorated the album’s release on a tour with Nerver through the Central US in September. The band is now booking sporadic regional gigs, including a show in Medford with Miracle Blood and more on November 22nd and a nasty gig supporting Pig Destroyer and Deadguy in Philadelphia December 13th. Expect further updates to post shortly.
