The Spacepimps Stream New Album

Eternal Boy, the new album from Pittsburgh pop punks The Spacepimps is available for streaming on their soundcloud page. This is the bands 4th full length, and as with previous records was self released in North America and via Kick Rock Records in Japan.

They are also one of the few bands who have toured China (twice now), which came about through contact from a Chinese label in 2011. Vocalist and guitar player Rishi Bahl explained how touring China is a completely different experience:

“We had the highs and lows of our career [in China],” Bahl explains. “We played in front of 20,000 people at a music festival, which might be the most people we ever play for. But we were dogging it, too. We don’t have a bus, so we’re flying domestically, we’re taking trains domestically, and the transit system — it’s China. It’s high-tech, but it’s completely poverty-stricken in every sense. You can’t do a tour bus in China, because everything’s too far apart. …We did a press conference there — backdrop and everything, microphones and everything. It makes no sense to us. It’s hard to even describe without sounding like you’re lying about it.”
