Austin post-hardcore band Porcelain will deliver their sophomore studio album this fall.
Announced today, Today’s Minor Victories will drop on October 23 via TODO Records. The band worked on the 10-track release with Scott Evans at Estuary Recording in Austin. Pre-orders for the album can be made here.
To celebrate the announcement, Porcelain dropped the new single “Apocalypse,” which arrives with a music video directed by Pooneh Ghana. The band said this about the new single, which can be heard below:
"This is a song about the loss of innocence. Growing up, the future looked so bright and promising, like we could all make something of this world for the better. But then we witness tragedy after tragedy unfold in front of our childlike eyes, and the world that we looked forward to growing up in now looks like it’s unattainable, collapsing in slow motion. Realizing that the world is full of insecure men searching for power, greed, resources, and the unquenchable thirst of violent imperialism. The future we were promised as children never came to be, and now we’re all but subjected to the systemic violence that our country was founded on.”
Porcelain will be touring along the West Coast in August with support from Guck on select shows. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now here.
