Seattle’s wonderfully named Tacocat are releasing a new album, This Mess Is a Place, on May 3 via Sub Pop, their first for the label. Previously they shared a video for its first single “Grains of Salt.” Now they have shared another song from it, album opener “Hologram.” Listen to it below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.
Tacocat features vocalist Emily Nokes, bassist Bree McKenna, guitarist Eric Randall, and drummer Lelah Maupin. Erik Blood produced This Mess Is a Place, which is the band’s fourth album. A previous press release said the album “finds the band waking up the morning after the 2016 election and figuring out how to respond to a new reality where evil isn’t hiding under the surface at all-it’s front and center, with new tragedies and civil rights assaults filling up the scroll of the newsfeed every day.”
In the press release Nokes had this to say about the album and the camaraderie among the band members: “We can examine some hard stuff, make fun of some evil stuff, feel some soft feelings, feel some rage feelings, feel some bitter-ass feelings, sift through memories, feel wavy-existential, and still go get a banana daiquiri at the end.”
