Alternative Classics: ViewMaster Debut and Tape Release

Come Saturday night on August 19 ViewMaster will be releasing their debut EP Alternative Classics in a show with Slow Learners, Shrouded Amps and Be Afraid. Released on Alarum Records, Alternative Classics is said to be “built from imaginative sonics,” which seems justifiable with luminaries like Sonic Youth, The Wipers, Silkworm, Mission Of Burma, and William Gibson, “the man who saw tomorrow.”

The post-punk band released the track and MV of “Bridge and Tunnel” on Exclaim! earlier this month, and now Discorder has the honour of streaming the rest of the album. Give it a whirl..
