Baltimore-based four-piece Tomato Flower have announced their debut album, simply titled No, and shared a new song from it, “Saint.” They have also announced some US tour dates. No it is expected to be released on March 8th via Ramp Local. Watch the 'Saint' video below, followed by the tracklist and album artwork, as well as tour dates. Also below is “Destroyer”, a No watch the band shared last year.
Lead singers Austyn Wohlers and Jamison Murphy lead the band. Formerly a couple, they split up while keeping the band together and then writing songs for it. Mike Alfieri and Ruby Marsh round out the lineup. In 2022 the band released two EPs, Golden bow and Construction. Despite being a relatively new band, that same year Tomato Flower supported Baltimore band Animal Collective on a national tour. A press release lists Stereolab, Crumb, Broadcast, Pylon, This Heat, Deerhunter and Jesus Lizard as references for the band.
Tomato Flower collectively had this to say about “Saint” in the press release: “Frenzy guitars and drums reflect a racing mind, while a slower guitar, cold vocals and a crashing bass reflect the speaker's failure to express herself. in time. The outro can be read as rhapsodic, ironic, or regretful—a recollection or acknowledgment of overwhelming emotion.”
