When the members of Turnstile aren’t releasing a banger of an album, they’re working on other bangers with other bands. Today (Sept. 8), Angel Du$t announces details of their forthcoming album YAK: A Collection of Truck Songs, out Oct. 22 via Roadrunner Records. The album will be produced by Rob Schnapf, known for his work with Kurt Vile and Elliott Smith. Comprised of members of Baltimore heavyweights Turnstile and Trapped Under Ice, Angel Du$t’s reinvention of punk with acoustic guitars and catchy pop melodies has helped usher in a new facet of the genre.
Today, the band also shares a video for their new single “Big Bite,” a jangly acoustic jam with punchy drums. It’s reminiscent of a campfire singalong or a weekend beach romp. Justice Tripp sings, “Take a big bite when it feels right,” driving home the central free-spirited ethos of the record. The album will also feature songs from the band’s 2021 EP Bigger House, the expansion upon their Lil House EP.
