At The Drive-In announce Vicar Street gig

Following a 15 year gap in album releases, post-hardcore collective At The Drive-In announced their return to recording in 2016, before releasing their fourth studio album In.ter.a.li.a in 2017.

According to the band, the album title, Latin for ‘Among other things,’ proves utterly apropos. “It’s a snapshot of life right now and the inevitability of where we might be headed,” Cedric explains. Thankfully, 16 years later, we have At The Drive-In back in the same spot, doing what they do best—rewriting all the rules.

“After all this time, At The Drive-In still means brotherhood, that gang mentality, and now more than ever, it means family,” Tony leaves off. “Because we have our own families, we’re older and wiser, and we understand each other a lot more. Recently, Cedric texted me, ‘We conquered a fucking mountain.’ That really resonated with me. I just wrote back in all caps, ‘A FUCKING MOUNTAIN.’ It’s so true. It took a lot of tears, stories, hugs, and hard work to make this record. We were only able to accomplish it because we have the utmost respect for each other’s talents. We’re here.”

At The Drive-In will play at Vicar Street on July 10.
