Philly five-piece Restorations premiered a new song yesterday through national website Punknews.org. “D” is the opening track on the band’s new LP2, out on April 2 via SideOneDummy records, and it kicks off with ringing guitar notes that cut an alluring soundscape, then launches into an aggressive, snare drum slamming overdrive. Singer / guitarist Jon Loudon seems to be focused on perception, taking stock of the world around him: “Always looked at clouds like continents…always looked the cities like people.” For a band that already did epic dang well, this is epic-epic. Listen to “D” here; Restorations plays its album release show at the First Unitarian Church on April 5. Tickets and information are available here.
