I know I’ve mentioned it a few times already, but holy hell the new Constantines record, Kensington Heights, is amazing. Like, I am becoming utterly obsessed with it amazing, which means any chance I can get to nerd out on them I’m going to take.

For example, take a look at their new video for “Hard Feelings”. It looks nice, sure, but there’s nothing too special about it. However, knowing that this is only the first track on the album, only the tip of iceberg, gets me so pumped. If you even remotely like this song, just know that Kensington Heights gets exponentially better as it progresses.

And, in just about the best news I’ve heard all week, the band have announced a Portland date for their upcoming tour. AIYEEEEE! Constantines are absolutely one of the best live bands I’ve ever seen, and these new tracks are going to kill live.

Constantines play the Doug Fir on June 30th.
