Indie rockers The Penny Serfs are based out of Iowa and they have just announced they will be releasing their new album, Like Eating Glass on January 20th. The album has been described as “the album acts as a vehicle for which The Penny Serfs search for their identity in this modern world run by money; fueled by sexism and fear. These songs are the band’s way of confronting the conundrums and frustrations that life throws.” Now that should really grab your attention and get you excited for what is to come.
The Penny Serfs include Michael Loy on lead vocals/guitar, Andrew Linley on bass/vocals, Stu Tenold on keyboards/vocals and Kyle Lewis on drums. They have drawn on the inspiration from icons like Ray Davies, John Lennon as well as Kurt Cobain and Ian MacKaye. This album promises to bring to the forefront those inspirations through their songs.
Regarding the upcoming release, The Penny Serfs tell us, “the album is an approach at the idea of a one true love being derailed by the internet paradox: being so connected to everything yet loneliness is everywhere. All of the songs show the painful reality that every battery must have a positive and a negative. With life must come death, with light must come darkness, and as the sun rises it must always set for the world to keep spinning.“
We will see if we can bring you an interview with them soon. Meanwhile, check out the track listing for the album and their upcoming shows:
