The Armed have released their new EP, EVERLASTING GAZE—an extension of their critically acclaimed LP PERFECT SAVIORS. The EP features three new tracks (which were hidden in plain sight via a URL printed inside every PERFECT SAVIORS jacket), alongside remixes of “Sport of Form,” the lead single from Perfect Saviors, with reimaginations from IDLES, Water From Your Eyes, and Model/Actriz.

EVERLASTING GAZE serves as the Side C of PERFECT SAVIORS and the final chapter of the ULTRAPOP trilogy (ONLY LOVE / ULTRAPOP / PERFECT SAVIORS)—a series that has explored both form and meta-context to reflect the collapse of the "authentic niche" in the information age. These final three songs serve as the conclusion to a decade of pop culture commentary by the world's least popular band—and a cleansing for what lies ahead. Released in August 2023, PERFECT SAVIORS was produced by The Armed’s Tony Wolski, along with Ben Chisholm and Troy Van Leeuwen. The album features contributions from Julien Baker, Sarah Tudzin, Mark Guiliana, Patrick Shiroishi, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, and many others. Mixed by Alan Moulder, the album earned widespread acclaim, including a profile in The New York Times, and cover stories in FADER, Revolver, and Kerrang. NPR, The Guardian, Stereogum, and Rolling Stone also praised the album, with The New York Times calling it “the group’s most polished and accessible record to date.” |
