LP no. 2 is coming from Los Angeles, CA based CNTS, a band featuring members of Dead Cross, Retox, and Qui.
The band shared the news, and a new single, this week, announcing the imminent release of Thoughts & Prayers on March 29 via Ipecac Recordings. The CNTS lineup is guitarist/producer Mike Crain (Dead Cross, Retox, Festival of Dead Deer), drummer Kevin Avery (Retox, Planet B), and vocalist Matt Cronk (Qui). Cronk previously suffered a vocal cord injury which threatened his musical career, but has since defied expectations and recovered.
“We got together and ran through a song and it sounded good. We kept playing and my voice held up, sounded cool, and we all felt good playing together. It was immediately clear that we could do it again, that we’d really missed playing together and we wanted to do it,” Cronk says. “Personally, the experience was a significant marker in my recovery. I got a little teary after that first song.”
