A PLACE TO BURY STRANGERS consists of Oliver Ackermann (guitar/vocals, bass), Dion Lunadon (bass guitar, guitar) and Lia Simone Braswell (drums). Setting tinnitus-inducing noise-pop against a tension-wracked JoyDivision-meets-Slowdive backdrop, this Brooklyn trio drenches lovesick indiepop in sheets of deafening static and distortion. 

Plenty of bands may have tapped the trebly, ecstatic side of shoegaze in recent years, but none have imbued it with this band's frustrated aggression or lacerating, industrial feedback.APTBS’s unsettling but invigorating live sets rapidly elevated the trio to the forefront of the NewYork indie scene. They have been called the loudest band in New York and have redeemed a reputation as one of the best live bands on the planet.
