Bad Astronaut is set to release their latest work, ‘Untethered’, on November 8th via Fat Wreck Chords. This album offers a fresh take on their classics, peeling back layers to reveal the unfiltered core of each song. Let ‘Grey Suits’ pull you in—an atmospheric first single now streaming everywhere music lives.
Vocalist Joey Cape shares the album’s inspiration: “This record was a real ‘passion project’ for me. Angus Cooke (cello, percussion) and Todd Capps (piano, keyboards) had been performing covers as an instrumental duo, which I affectionately called ‘Tangus.’ After hearing their takes on punk classics, I suggested we revisit the Bad Astronaut catalog in a stripped-down format. It wasn’t long before we began tracking pared-down versions of a selection of our songs. The album is titled ‘Untethered’—an elevated synonym for ‘unplugged.’ We’ve always appreciated hearing the raw essence of a composition, and we hope the fans do too.”
