Deleter To Release Oblique Seasons December 7th

Oblique Seasons by Deleter

Deleter is a Minneapolis post-punk attack team composed of vocalist/guitarist Knol Tate (Askeleton, Killsadie), bassist/vocalist Travis Collins (Spirit Of 76, We Are The Willows), drummer/percussionist Josh McKay (Farewell Continental, Small Towns Burn A Little Slower) and guitarist Jordan Morantez (Blue Green, The King & The Thief).

Deleter’s new album Oblique Seasons will be available on December 7th. Watch the video below or scroll down to preview songs from the album.

Formed in 2012, Deleter quickly refined their sound to a bold, loud, yet dynamic sonic force. Tate’s lyrics comprised of poetry with classic lyricism create a voice with a unique perspective. Having long lists of clear influences like garage rock, post punk, hardcore punk, psychedelic rock, as well as less obvious influences like 60’s biker, surf and spy movie soundtracks; Deleter blends genres sometimes calling to mind music as diverse as Wire, The Fall, Davie Allan, The Ventures, The Ex, Born Against and Psychedelic Furs. No matter the inspiration or the influence, Deleter has been able to create their own sound in the time they’ve been together. Fierce, catchy, noisy, and reflective; almost militaristic, Deleter sounds deliberate, sincere and purposely crafted.

With a slew of self-released singles in early 2013 that came to be known collectively as the “A/B Series” and later in the year the “56789” EP, followed by two more EPs; Komposition and Zweite Komposition less than a year later, Deleter’s first proper long playing recording “Oblique Seasons” sees the band refining their sound and lyrical content while expanding the pallet. From frazzled bursts of punk rock and hardcore with tracks like “Dysphoria (Dictionary Definition)”, “Macy Shot A Cop” and “Worry Less”, to strange and angular pop songs like “Seclusion”, “Worst Person In The World” and title track “Oblique Seasons”, to tension filled, haunting and mysterious songs like “A Ridiculous Man”, “No Culture” and “You’re Assassinated”. Deleter has set a higher bar for themselves and their creative output with “Oblique Seasons”. Operating in a music world of short attention spans and instant amusement this LP was crafted to stand out.
