Music Existence Because of Music, We Exist
Six months after its acclaimed worldwide release, CITY OF SHIPS‘ groundbreaking third album Ultraluminal is now available as a name-your-price download on the band’s official Bandcamp page.
Vocalist/guitarist Eric Jernigan explains: “The level of work and reinvention that went into this record set a new standard for us as a band. While touring on these songs this year we met so many people who’ve been inspired by them, which reinforced the fact that this music is a gift for our listeners as much as it is catharsis for ourselves. With that in mind we’re celebrating the album’s achievement half a year later by offering it up for an affordable price to anyone who either missed it or couldn’t afford it back in the spring. We hope it brings you even a fraction of the joy we experienced in making it.”
Ghost Cult Magazine says the ten track LP finds, “CITY OF SHIPS…positively brimming with intelligence, insight and verve. This is the sort of record that makes you feel a little bit smarter, a bit better about yourself and a lot better about the world,” while Diffuser.fm hails the record as a “loud, layered, unprecendented listening experience.” Heavy Blog is Heavy describes Ultraluminalas a “heady mix of down-tuned, chunky bass and more approachable guitars and vocals [which] lend their post-tinged signature an addictive character.”
Delving deeper into the sonic terrain mined by groundbreakers like Failure, Helmet and Quicksand, CITY OF SHIPS delivers an innovative take on contemporary post-hardcore to create an undeniably powerful listening experience. Transcendent, discerning, and ultimately cathartic in its contemplative approach, Ultraluminal proves the band’s capability in fusing their characteristic gnarled riffs with brilliant hooks to match.
