A Place To Bury Strangers have often been called the loudest band in New York. This may very well be the case, but unlike much of the loud rock and roll that is out now, APTBS is not loud simply for the sake of it. The sonically overdriven sound they have accomplished is no clumsy accident, but a carefully cultivated and well maintained entity all its own, fostered by an unbridled passion thats clearly evident in every live show they play and each recording the make.
While there are obvious reference points - Pornography-era Cure, early Ride, Depeche Mode, Blast First era Sonic Youth, MBV, and pre 90s Jesus & Mary Chain - the sound is all their own; in part due to singer/guitarist Oliver Ackermanns day job of building and designing custom guitar pedals, coupled with the solid bass of Jono Mofo and the relentless drumming of Jay Space, the APTBS is a force to be reckoned with.
