11/13: New Collisions release Invisible Embraces

So bummed this is on a pill night, but my boys (and girl) in the New Collisions finally drop a national EP this Friday at the Middle East. "Invisible Embraces" is certain to push further the Cult of NewCols, and they'd rounded up the usual Boston rock circuit veterans to help party it up proper in Central Square. Facebook event invite here, with the show details re-pasted down below after a look at the very-cool "Invisible Embraces" cover art and sleeve.




On Friday, November 13, The New Collisions will be celebrating the national release of their extended debut EP, Invisible Embraces, with special live guest GREG HAWKES, at The Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge.

Invisible Embraces features two new singles (Afterglow and I'm Losing), production by the great Anthony Resta (Duran Duran, Blondie), synth by The Cars' Greg Hawkes, and a cover of The Motels' 1978 gem, Total Control. Scroll down to see the neon artwork with photos by Liz Linder and design by Boston geniuses Alphabet Arm.

Equally exciting is the bill on this intense occasion--the best of 2009's Boston scene. THE FUTURE EVERYBODY (members of Scamper), GENE DANTE AND THE FUTURE STARLETS, THICK AS THIEVES, and THE LUXURY will be joining us.

In the midst of a national tour to promote the release, we'll be coming back to town to join some of our favorite acts and decimate a very large room.

The new singles are going up this week, so stay tuned! Invisible Embraces will be available live at the show, then on itunes and every other online outlet on November 17!

The Middle East Downstairs is 472 Mass Ave in Cambridge. $10, 18+, 8pm doors.
