This is their third album, and the follow-up to 2015&#8217;s Leaper, which showcased a layered 90s-esque shoegaze sound. Beliefs have moved on to avant and synth influences, and created a darker post-punk sound on &#8216;Habitat,&#8217; which will be out on September 22 via Hand Drawn Dracula.<\/p>\n<p>This is the moment when Beliefs stops being defined as the sum of its influences, the moment when it has audibly put in enough time to start exploring and realizing its true potential, the moment when it starts decisively growing into its own thing. Which, as all music fans know, is the most exciting moment in a band\u2019s existence.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI hope that\u2019s the case,\u201d<\/em> says Crowe. <em>\u201cThat\u2019s always how I feel about bands, too \u2013 when you listen to something and it seems like it\u2019s leading to a whole other element of a band, when you feel like you\u2019re in the hallway about to open the door to a whole other space that this band is creating. And I hope that that\u2019s what happens with us. We have no real plans at this point. We don\u2019t want to be a \u2018shoegaze\u2019 band anymore.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You can take a first nibble of the album and watch the video for <em>1994<\/em> via YouTube below.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/limJ3JlBo3A?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-CA&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Toronto post-punk band Beliefs, aka Jessie Crowe and Josh Korody (of Nailbiter, Wish, Vallens, etc.) have announced their new album &#8216;Habitat&#8217;.
