Peel Dream Magazine Announce Their Second LP, Release New Single “Pill”

NYC-based dream-pop band Peel Dream Magazine have announced the arrival of their second full-length album, Agitprop Alterna, out April 3 via Slumberland Records. The band also shares the music video for the first single off their forthcoming album, “Pill.”

The band’s previous effort was 2018’s Modern Meta Physic, which drew inspiration from the hazy sound of alternative ‘90s pop. Agitprop Alterna seems to be leaning into a solidly shoegaze sound, with distinct homage to acts like My Bloody Valentine and Stereolab enmeshed in the fuzzy guitar and vocals.

The music video for “Pill” is just as fuzzy, emulating a staticky TV set with pixelated versions of the band members playing their instruments, also seeming to reference the ‘90s roots of shoegaze.

Peel Dream Magazine will tour before the album’s release, staring in New York City and ending at Ohio’s Oberlin College.
