“Visiting Hours”, the newest long-player from Brooklyn’s Vaz for the SGG label, following 2011’s precedent-obliterating “Chartreuse Bull”, manages to at once capture the live ferocity of the band as well as highlight their use of the studio as another weapon in a formidable aural arsenal. Our use of alliteration here should illustrate that we mean business. In fact, it’s safe to say that the needle was buried so deep in the red that recording engineer Ben Greenberg(The Men, Hubble) still hasn’t managed to excavate it.
Vaz are touring for the entirety of November in support of “Visiting Hours”, making stops all across the U.S. and sharing bills with label-mates and old and new friends alike. It is advised that you attend these shows.
“Visiting Hours” will be in finer shops everywhere on November 12 and is available for early adopters now from the SGG store and from the band on tour.
