While Junius (hopefully) prepares their way overdue full-length follow-up to 2011’s excellent Reports From the Threshold of Death, here’s a new band featuring two of its members… that sounds nothing like Junius! Driftoff boasts two members of the post-metal outfit, along with members of City of Ships and Rosetta. The four-track Modern Fear EP, streaming below, drops October 30 on Science of Silence. Preorder it from the band (“name your price” digital pre-order and exclusive, limited-edition, 180-gram, “coke bottle” clear vinyl) here, and the label (exclusive, limited-edition, 180-gram, gray vinyl) here.
