Wednesday, July 11th 2012 – New York, NY – In anticipation for their forthcoming sophomore release, Arizona-based KNESSET premieres their haunting cover of Bon Iver’s “Holocene” on RCRDLBL.com TODAY; download HERE<http://rcrdlbl.com/2012/07/11/premiere_knesset_holocene_bon_iver_cover_>. Following the success of their debut album Coming of Age (& Records), produced and mixed by John Congleton (St. Vincent, Explosions in the Sky, The Walkmen), the band completed a sold-out performance in Japan and have since returned to the studio.
KNESSET, who formed in 2007 in the unlikely locale of Phoenix, Arizona, is a rising band comprised of Evan Fox (guitar, vocals), Eric Graf (bass), Mitch Manger (mallet percussion, keys) and acclaimed Lymbyc Systym/The Books/ Crystal Castles' Michael Bell (drums, percussion). The band fuses engaging pop hooks, shimmering textures and strikingly sincere lyrics that have captured audiences around the world. After embarking on regional tours in the southwest, the band recorded their debut album Coming of Age in 2011, which culminated in a triumphant show in Tokyo to a packed house of ardent fans in 2012. Rolling Stone (Germany) called Coming of Age “an incredibly mature album…reminiscent of early compositions of Death Cab for Cutie, ”NME highlighted the  “propulsive drumming that wouldn’t sound out of place on a National album, and Americana tropes seen through plaintive, jaded young eyes,” while BBC raved “crushingly beautiful layers of indie brilliance.” Listen to Coming of Age HERE<http://weareknesset.bandcamp.com/>.
KNESSET will release their sophomore record in Fall 2012. Watch this space for updates: www.weareknesset.com<http://www.weareknesset.com>
