On Big Laugh‘s new single, Shadow Figure, striking guitars and impassioned vocals are surrounded by distorted fuzz that together form a bouncy track with an authentic rawness. The song serves as the second shared from the hardcore punk band’s upcoming album, Consume Me, that is set for release on February 10th via Revelation Records. Big Laugh has also announced a record release show on February 17th in Milwaukee, WI with support from Hotline TNT, Direct Threat, World I Hate and Innuendo.
Recorded with producer Matt Russell at Altered States Studio in Chicago, Consume Me bends genres and refuses to stick to tired formulas, taking nods from other Midwest greats like Husker Du and Die Kreuzen. The album’s lyrics hit close to home for the band, holding personal notions while still feeling outwardly relatable. It follows the band’s 2020 EP, Manic Revision, which Revelation Records has also announced a vinyl reissue for.
