Seattle-based pop/electronic duo USF (formerly known as Universal Studios Florida, one half of which is Jason Baxter from Hardly Art) has big news today with the announcement of their signing to Ceremony Recordings, as well as their upcoming album, SIMISM, coming out June 24. Since 2008, USF has put out three EPs, and the remarkable Ocean Sunbirds full-length. The first single off SIMISM, “Sibilant”, which they've shared on Soundcloud alongside their signing news, is a pulsing study in distorted club vivacity, drenched in radioactive shimmer and grounded by a soulful core. Stream it below.
USF' SIMISM is out June 24 on Ceremony. SIMISM is also available for pre-order via Bandcamp.
