In the past, Circa Survive have released albums on major and indie labels, but for their fourth LP, Violent Waves, the band decided to do things differently. On August 28th, fans will be able to buy the self-released and self-produced Violent Waves directly from the band's website for $5. "By choosing to download our music directly from us, you are choosing to give our band a future and directly supporting us and our families," vocalist Anthony Green wrote in a letter to fans.

Circa Survive will hit the road in support of the album in September (find their tour dates here). Hear Violent Waves in its entirety with this exclusive stream.

“Is It True”

Brenda Lee | 1964

As the British Invasion reached its peak in 1964, Brenda Lee went from Nashville to London to record one of her hardest-rocking hits, her perky vocal backed by a stuttering, squalling guitar. That guitar was played by session musician Jimmy Page, yet to skyrocket to fame with first the Yardbirds and then Led Zeppelin. "She said to me, 'I've come here to make a record with the British sound,'" remembered producer Mickie Most. "She felt she wouldn't get the same sound in Nashville because they're only just catching up on the British beat group sound of about six months ago."
