Uniform share new track, “The Killing of America,” plus tour dates announced

New York City industrial noise-rock duo Uniform have shared another new track from their upcoming album, Wake in Fright. The track is titled “The Killing of America,” and premiered via Bullett.

The title is taken from this Leonard Schrader movie called The Killing of America,” says the group’s Michael Berdan via Bullett. “It’s a documentary about gun violence in America in the early ’80s. We started writing it around the time the Atlanta shooting happened, and we were hearing about a new mass shooting every day. This was just our way of speaking to that.”
