For Your Health offer one final glimpse of their upcoming album This Bitter Garden (out June 6 via 3DOT Recordings) with the release of the ferocious new track “Gaia Wept” and its accompanying video (https://go.mhe.fm/
“Musically, it’s an ass beater,” says guitarist and video director Nick Marzluf. “It’s one of our most intense songs.”
The Columbus-based band has earned accolades from outlets like Pitchfork, who praised their “screamo, post-hardcore, and genre-defying “sound and earned “Band To Watch” honors from Stereogum. Earlier singles include “Davenport (A Rotten Pear),” with a video directed by indie horror filmmaker Nick Holland (“Wronged,” “An Intrusion”) and described by Stereogum as “a violent freakout that reaches Blood Brothers levels of euphoric anxiety,” and “Flowers For The Worst of Them,” which Idioteq called “a track steeped in themes of disillusionment.”
Pre-orders for This Bitter Garden are available now via 3DOT Recordings (https://store.3dotrecordings.
Produced by Eric Hudson (recorded in a studio repurposed from a church in rural Illinois), This Bitter Garden follows the band’s acclaimed debut full-length, In Spite Of, which Brooklyn Vegan said “exists around the halfway point between early Daughters and the experimental late period of Fear Before the March of Flames.”
