The bearded brothers of Pontiak are ready to unleash their latest full-length hunk of stoner rock, the 11-track, all-caps-enhanced INNOCENCE. Out January 28 through Thrill Jockey Records, the fast-approaching album features the previously heard title track (via Stereogum) and the just-unveiled fuzz-giant “Lack Lustre Rush.” The new song comes paired with a music video directed by the three Carney men themselves. Jennings, Van, and Lain complement the bluesy squall of “Lack Lustre Rush” with a visual that floats across an all-white abyss. Watch it above, and scroll down for Pontiak’s upcoming North American tour dates — the Virginia trio will be on the road in support of INNOCENCE all throughout February.
