Omni announce new album, Souvenir
Omni has announced a new album. On February 16, the Atlanta post-punk trio will release Souvenir, their fourth album, via Sub Pop. Today they’ve shared the leadoff track, “Exacto.” Hear it below, via its video directed by Zach Pyles, concept by Frankie Broyles, Chris Yonker, and Zach Pyles. Also check out the album’s artwork and tracklist, as well as their upcoming UK spring tour dates.
The group said in a statement, “Exacto was born from a fruitful writing session one night at our main getaway in Vienna, GA. The power in the guitar leads and rhythm were immediately conjured. Lyrics and melodies were written in the back of a van in Sacramento, thinking of being left on the shelf, imagining the odd things people do for attention from people they love and strangers alike.
“And yes, that’s a real TV falling from a 10-story parking deck in downtown Atlanta. No, we did not ask permission. No one was hurt in the making of this video.”
Souvenir follows 2019’s Networker.
