Nearly a year after their live stream event, post-hardcore experimentalists The Armed will release Ultrapop: Live At The Masonic Temple on Blu-ray and DVD on September 29. In the meantime, the band has just released the audio version to all streaming platforms, and you can check out their performance of "Masunaga Vapors" above.
The Armed have a few shows scheduled for this summer, and you can check those dates out below. The band released their most recent LP, Ultrapop, in April 2021 and then began working on its follow-up in November. They took to Twitter in February of this year to tease something called Ultrajazz, which might be a new album. But, given the mystery surrounding The Armed, who knows!
