One of last year’s more left-field Album Of The Week selections was Six, the debut LP from Connecticut post-hardcore bashers Empty Flowers. This year, we’ve already posted their single “I Get To Know Its Name,” and now the band has announced plans for Six’s follow-up — which, logically enough, is titled Five. The new album will arrive in a month and a half, and the title track is a purposeful blare, pounding in a way that indie bands rarely pound anymore. Download it below.
