Starbenders have announced their brand-new album, The Beast Goes On.
The glam rock’n’roll quartet – vocalist Kimi Shelter, bassist Aaron Lecesne, guitarist Kriss Tokaji and drummer Qi Wei – will be releasing the follow-up to 2023’s Take Back The Night on February 27 via Sumerian Records.
As well as featuring previous singles Tokyo, To Be Alright and Somebody Else, the 13-track LP will also include Starbenders’ newly-released cover of Saturday by All The Damn Vampires. They say that the song “felt like it already lived inside Stranger Things, haunted and unresolved” and have therefore unveiled their own version – which you can check out below…
