Falling Still To Release ‘Hot Piss’ Mini-EP
LA rockers Falling Still have announced that they will be releasing a mini-EP entitled Hot Piss on June 25th. The release will feature three tracks: “I’m Pissed”, “Gods Of The Echospace”, and “Castle Walls”. Structured almost like a concept album, the tracks follow the path of troubled youth through his life to his death bed.
Bassist/vocalist Brett Hamilton states, “This is a more honest representation of our creative process than anything else we’ve done. We’re just three filthy-mouthed degenerates trying to make something beautiful.” He adds, “This EP is a rite of spring for us.”
Guitarist/vocalist Eric Podnar comments, “We’ve found that the EP format of releasing fewer songs more often helps keep things interesting for both us and our fans. We have so much music we want to make right now, and by regularly putting out new material and tirelessly playing live, we’re finally in a position to get it all out there.”
Below is a stream of “I’m Pissed”, which can be downloaded for free.

The release features Vince Guaraldi‘s jazzy score, including favorites like “The Great Pumpkin Waltz,” “Graveyard Theme,” and, of course, the iconic “Linus and Lucy.”
