New Releases Now Touts The New Jeffrey Runnings Release

Piqued, the final release from For Against’s deceased frontman Jeffrey Runnings is, according to New Releases Now, “an unflinching, minimalist elegy that distills a lifetime of post-punk devotion into something raw, intimate, and quietly transcendent… Recorded alone at home on a trusty 8-track cassette machine, Piqued sounds like a late-‘80s mixtape made in solitude – equal parts diary and devotional. It’s Runnings channeling a lifetime of obsessions and influences, from Young Marble Giants and Section 25 to early 4AD cuts, and filtering them through a stark, minimal lens that only makes the emotional weight hit harder.” There’s much more here.

The LP is at radio now from Independent Project Records. Get it started now!
