Laura Jane Grace & The Devouring Mothers Announce Album, Bought To Rot

Fresh from unveiling debut single Apocalypse Now (& Later), Laura Jane Grace & The Devouring Mothers have now announced their debut album.

The record, titled Bought To Rot, will be released on November 9 via Bloodshot Records, and will consist of "14 tracks spanning Laura’s fractured relationship with her adopted hometown of Chicago, true friendship, complicated romance, and reconciling everything in the end". Pre-order it right here.

“I’ve been a longtime fan of Bloodshot and the artists they work with," Laura says of her new partnership with the label. "Having spent the past year working on a record without knowing where its home was going to be, when I discovered that the Bloodshot offices were only a couple blocks away from my apartment I went in and asked if they’d consider giving the songs a home. They were cool enough to hear me out and oblige. I couldn’t be more happy about the work we’re going to do together and sharing it with the world.”
