Canadian indie rock act PACKS have delivered their new single "Paige Machine" today.
The track, which can be heard below, is another offering from their forthcoming studio album Melt The Honey. The 11-track album is slated for a January 19 release via Fire Talk.
Vocalist Madeline Link said this about the new song, which was inspired by Mark Twain:
“Twain invested in a printing device called the Paige Compositor, spent his life’s savings on it, and it worked almost perfectly. It would have been revolutionary, but then the inventor, Paige, took it apart to tweak something, make the machine work even better, and it never worked again. They say that this failure led to Mark Twain’s decline.”
Pre-orders for Melt The Honey can be made here. PACKS is currently on tour with Slow Pulp. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now.
