The Legendary Pink Dots are still alive and releasing stuff

The Legendary Pink Dots are, in many ways, a very unforgiving band. Unforgiving in their stark, haunting lyricism. Unforgiving in their dense, post-industrial rhythmic onslaughts. Entirely and especially unforgiving in their approach to recording and touring over the past 30 years. This trend will now be even more exaggerated with the impending release of Seconds Late for the Brighton Line, the band’s 40th-something release (if you count all the CD-Rs and such).

The album is set to be regurgitated onto the populace on October 5 via ROIR, with the first 500 CDs displaying a deluxe cover, and the double-vinyl version sporting a bonus side. They, being the super (or non)-humans that they are, are of course running through the states too beginning October 15. As many of you LPD heads are well aware, longtime band members Neils Van Hoorn and Martjn have departed, forcing the band to bring on some guest players for this upcoming tour. Let that be no reason to think that they won’t bring the pain, because I can assure you they will.
