The Freak Accident Release New Album “The Midnight Show”

The Midnight Show is the fifth full length by San Francisco’s The Freak Accident, the album expands the known universe of what the band is capable of. The heavy parts are heavier, the punk parts are punkier, the noise is noisier and the improv parts are improvier; while somehow simultaneously creating the catchiest Freak Accident album to date. Ralph Spight (Victims Family / Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School of Medicine), Henry Austin Lannan and Stark Raving Brad have coalesced into a band that can & does go in whatever direction they please.

The Freak Accident had an inside joke about having to play last at every show, which formed the basis of the lyrics for the title track. It became a concept album of sorts; twisting through a dystopian, Sci-Fi B-movie filter where religion, death, authoritarianism, codependency, depression, entitlement, and internet trolls are all intelligently parsed and skewered with biting lyricism and a healthy heaping of humor. The Midnight Show is out today via Nadine Records and The Freak Accident will be announcing tour dates in support of the album.
