ACTORS SHARE ELECTRIFYING FELIX BONDAREV REMIX FOR “POST-TRAUMATIC LOVE”
ARTOFFACT RECORDS
Canadian post-punk icons ACTORS share the fourth and final single “Post Traumatic Love (Felix Bondarev Remix)” from their upcoming Reanimated deluxe album out August 19th via Artoffact Records. The remix is electrifying and full of punchy feel-good beats. Unparalleled in songwriting, the original single and ACTORS’ debut “Post Traumatic Love” is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year. Listen to the Felix Bondarev remix now on Bandcamp and Spotify and pre-order the album at THIS location.
On the release of Reanimated Shannon Hemmett (synth, vocals) comments:
“It’s the tenth anniversary of ACTORS’ debut single Post Traumatic Love. We wanted to do something special with Artoffact Records and re-release that single with b-side Nightlife. Those two tracks plus the PTL remixes are on the new Reanimated deluxe record!”
This Fall, the band will be bringing their beautifully sculpted live show to cities across the US in September and to Europe and the UK in October and November. The tour spans 38 dates starting in Brooklyn, New York and wrapping in Warsaw, Poland. All tour dates below. Tickets can be purchased at THIS location.
About Actors
In Fall 2021, the band released their latest album Acts of Worship via Artoffact Records, which saw features on several “Best of 2021” album lists, major support from CBC Radio (4 singles added) and coverage in Exclaim Magazine, Brooklyn Vegan, Northern Transmissions, Vancouver Sun and Vancouver Guardian to name a few. It is now available on Bandcamp and Spotify via Artoffact Records.
The album was produced by Corbett at his own Jacknife Sound in Vancouver. On the release, he has stated: “It’s about embracing who you are and having the confidence to do what you feel and not be afraid. I made the first ACTORS album without caring about who would hear it. I think people can feel honesty in music whether they realize it or not. The new album is exactly where I wanted to go with ACTORS. It expands on the last album lyrically and sonically. It’s the next step of our journey.”
ACTORS’ 2018 album, It Will Come to You, also released on Artoffact, put the band’s moody, anthemic style on the map, earning these words from Post-Punk: “Vancouver’s brilliant post-punk and new-wave quartet ACTORS continue their flair for sonic cinematics… The atmosphere quivers with singer Jason Corbett’s crooning reverb augmented by shivering guitars and stark synths.” Three years later, the follow-up, Acts of Worship, is an album of driving beats, massive hooks, and dramatic atmospheres – equally melancholy and electrifying, it plays like the soundtrack to an imaginary Michael Mann film.
