NYC alternative rock band Bedridden will deliver their debut album this spring.

Revealed today, Moths Strapped To Each Other's Backs will be released on April 11 via Julia’s War Recordings. The 10-track album was produced by Momma’s Aron Kobayashi Ritch. A new single from the record titled “Etch” can be heard here.

Vocalist/guitarist Jack Riley said this about the single:

“‘Etch’ was a rhythmic accident that didn’t stem from any direct inspirations. The irregular triplet line came to me first and sounded somber, yet hostile. It lent itself well to phrases I had written not about heartbreak, but about the subsequent temper that it had induced. I was dreaming of fighting, I was dreaming of winning that fight, and lastly dreaming of defaming my competitor. The song is frantic and doesn’t have a tonal center. With its weaving guitar harmonies laid underneath countering vocal melodies, it sounds to me like that regretful fistfight that I was longing for.”

Pre-orders for Moths Strapped To Each Other's Backs can be made here. Bedridden will have a handful of shows in the Northeast before touring to Texas for SXSW. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now.
