Braille, the 3rd album from the acclaimed math/hardcore UK scene trail-blazers Palm Reader, is finally out!
“Towering over 2013 debut Bad Weather and 2015’s Beside The Ones We Love, Braille seethes and surges, with stretches of fathomless atmosphere rising into chaos” Kerrang! KKKK
“…brutal to beautiful and back in the blink of an eye” Metal Hammer 7/10
“These songs grasp you by the neck and demand your attention , while showing you a band that are constantly evolving…” Rock Sound 8/10
“If you only listen to one new release this week, make sure it’s Braille. Palm Reader are the most underrated band of the decade” That’s Not Metal
‘Braille’ was recorded and produced by Lewis Johns (Bastions , Rolo Tomassi, Gnarwolves, Muncie Girls, ) at The Ranch, Southampton. ‘Braille’ is a highly refined, and marked evolution of Palm Reader’s sonic identity, and sees the band eclipse their previous works. Palm Reader have doctorates in mathematical time signatures, gargantuan riffs and rail-rattling brutality, but their third offering transcends these preconceptions with fathoms of oceanic atmosphere, Intellect, and melodies awash with all the beauty and power of a tsunami.
