theWorst “Quiet The Gods” With New EP

Portland, ME’s theWorst have released the video for Hackles that is taken from their new EP, Quiet The Gods, that is out today via RascalZ RecordZ. The EP demonstrates the evolution but stays true to the sonic trademarks of their previous releases. Hackles is a classic tread down the very road that helped establish the band’s identity from their inception. The song arrives accompanied with a stunning black and white music video, filmed and directed by the multi-talented Sparxsea, that delivers an altruistic nod to classic film noir. The video also stars front woman Brooke Binion‘s two dogs who have now spent years touring the country with the band.    

As a certified dog trainer herself, the video is a befitting tribute to the core of what makes the music of theWorst so seminal as well as a glimpse into the inspirations and revelations that nourish Binion’s ardent forays into angst, regret, loneliness and hopelessness. This is the leader of a band in full-stride, all who have seemed to become more adept with each release at illuminating the darkest places of our psyche.
