This surprise release marks the duo's seventh album
The Raveonettes have unexpectedly released their new album Pe'Ahi. The LP was only announced July 22 and is available to buy and stream now, which you can do through the band's SoundCloud. The title of the album is an homage to a surfing spot in Maui, Hawaii.
In an interview with Drowned in Sound announcing the release of the album, Sune Rose Wagner described the record: "Musically there's a lot of surf guitar sounds in there. But used in very different ways to the traditional surf record sound. There's also a lot of references to surf language and beaches in the lyrics but again used in a very different context. It was a challenge to try and channel some of the inspiration I found - especially the surf history of Southern California - but not in an obvious way."
Pe'Ahi marks the band's seventh album and first since 2012. Below is the tracklisting.
