The Casket Lottery debut first track, ‘In the Branches,’ from new album

Kansas City based indie rock band, The Casket Lottery, will release their first full-length studio album, ‘Real Fear,’ on November 6 via No Sleep Records.  The first track lifted from the album, In the Branches, can be heard exclusively at Alarm Magazine here and you can pre-order the new album today at nosleepstore.com/artist/the-casket-lottery.

According to the label, the album is strapped with an arsenal of moody, abrasive guitars, precision bass lines and mathy drumwork, The Casket Lottery return with their strongest album to date, ‘Real Fear’; a beautifully cathartic, dreary-dreamlike swirl of grooving riffs that intertwine with singer Nathan Ellis’ relentless vocals, transcending into a euphoric intensity for the dark horse album of the fall.

Track List:
1. Blood on the Handle
2. In the Branches
3. The Moon and The Tide
4. Poor Dorian
5. Pamina
6. Ghost Whiskey
7. Sarastro
8. Baptistina
9. The Door
10. Radiation Bells
11. Real Fear

Preceding the release of ‘Real Fear,’ The Casket Lottery are teaming up with Los Angeles hardcore outfit Touche Amore for a split 7” vinyl/digital release on October 2, which features two new, original recordings and two cover songs from each band.  Additional information is expected to be announced soon.
