Baltimore hardcore outfit Angel Du$ have signed to Run for Cover Records , marking the announcement with a 7″ single featuring the songs ‘The Beat’ and ‘The Knife’. The rip-roaring ‘The Beat’, which boasts guest vocals from Taylor Young (Twitching Tongues, God’s Hate, Deadbody, Regional Justice Center), comes paired with a video directed by Blaise Cepis. While ‘The Knife’ doesn’t have a visual, it’s quite unnerving on its own. Take a listen below.
About working with Run for Cover, the band’s Justice Tripp shared: “It was just so organic and natural. As long as I’ve been involved with music the RFC people have been friends to me and have been showing me the ropes, but I always kind of thought AD just wasn’t their bag and never thought about asking them about putting out our music. Then when it finally came up it just seemed like the most obvious right fit for us. I just hold them in such a high regard, and stylistically they obviously do a lot of different stuff, but I think it really makes sense: they’re creative, alternative, sometimes heavy — just like Angel Du$t.”
‘The Beat’ and ‘The Knife’ mark the band’s first new music since 2023’s Brand New Soul.
