The Armed have announced a new EP as an extension of last year’s full-length album Perfect Saviors. Titled Everlasting Gaze, the EP features three new songs as well as remixes of “Sport of Form” by Idles, Water From Your Eyes, and Model/Actriz. One of those singles, “New! Christianity” featuring guest vocals from Illuminati Hotties’ Sarah Tudzin and Meghan O’Neil, is out now with a Tony Wolski-directed music video. Watch it below.
The Everlasting Gaze EP will arrive on October 18. Eagle-eyed fans could have found the EP sooner, though, as the Armed have also revealed that vinyl copies of Perfect Saviors printed a URL inside the jacket that leads to those three new songs. “New! Christianity” was originally conceived as the first single for that album, but was eventually sacrificed with the idea that it would become “a summary statement appropriate for the finale Side C record and epilogue to the Only Love / Ultrapop / Perfect Saviors trilogy,” says the Armed.
