A Place To Bury Strangers too loud for vinyl

A Place To Bury Strangers' 10-inch single has been delayed to 12 May after the pressing machine broke because the master recordings were too loud.

"The loudest band in New York", A Place To Bury Strangers, have had to push back the release date of the limited edition 10 inch vinyl version of their new single 'To Fix The Gash In Your Head'/'Ocean' after the machine pressing the discs broke because they're too darn loud. Really, that is the actual reason.

A spokesman for the band's UK label Meal Deal Records revealed that the volume on the master recordings exceeded recommended levels, causing one of the few 10 inch pressing machines left in the UK to break. The single will now be released on 12 May.
