Los Angeles-based band Brass Box will release their new LP The Cathedral this Friday on Dune Altar. The Cathedral can be pre-ordered now on CD and LP HERE. In anticipation of Friday's release the album is streaming in full at AudioFemme along with exclusive interview with Brass Box's Ammo Bankoff.

As The Cathedral continues, Bankoff, along with guitarists Neil Popkin and Matt Bennett and drummer Pablo Amador, take a torch into the darkness, exploring landscapes thick with fog, witches hiding in thickets, and romance consummated beneath a full moon.'
