Times New Viking Awake Us With New EP

Times New Viking <i>Awake</i> Us With New EP

Times New Viking are apparently as restless as their music sounds. Not a week after the announcement of their fall tour with Deerhunter (and a bunch of other folks), the Columbus trio have revealed a new EP.

The 7" disc (and download) is called Stay Awake, and it hits both brick-and-mortar and digital outlets October 21 via Matador. You can watch Beth Murphy creating the EP's artwork in a video here.

Before their aforementioned tour with Deerhunter begins, TNV have a few dates to themselves. The next one is August 23 in Cleveland.

Stay Awake:
