ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH, is thrillingly unpredictable from moment to moment, and a mind-expanding exploration of the innumerable forms rock music can take. - PASTE MAGAZINE

Philadelphia shape-shifting rock band SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE has delivered their new LP ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH via Saddle Creek - their first with the label. With it comes a new video for “IT MIGHT TAKE SOME TIME” - a dreamy sequencing of pattern, color, and imagery edited by Braden Lawrence. A band admired by fans, peers and critics alike ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH is a clear leap forward in the evolution of the newly modified 3-piece (founding members Zack Schwartz and Rivka Ravede are now joined by new member Corey Wichlin), an adjustment that better suits the new record's musical stylings.

Expounded upon in a recent Stereogum profile the band engaged in an entirely different writing process than their past records. Where their breakout Hypnic Jerks was recorded in a week, ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH was planned and plotted over the period of 4 months; a dangerous amount of time for a band whose attention to detail is exceptional, allowing for their most focused and exploratory work to date. ENTERTAINMENT, DEATH is also the first to be entirely self-recorded and produced by the band giving a wider periphery and deeper scope into their intricate pop genius, a view unlike any SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE record that has come before.
