The Black Queen, the band featuring Greg Puciato (ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan), Josh Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv, Nine Inch Nails) and Steven Alexander, is back with a brand new album via their own label. The Black Queen will release Infinite Games, an album they call "more conceptual," on September 28 via Federal Prisoner.
Puciato says Federal Prisoner won't "function like a typical label," but stays kind of vague on what that actually means.
"Federal Prisoner won’t function like a typical label. It’s an expression of passion and individualism in a way that opens more doors for us to create and to own what we create with minimal compromise. It’s as much an act of refusal as it is a statement of intent."
No singles are available yet, but you can pre-order Infinite Games here.
