The noisy New York duo The Gay Blades are releasing a new album on Oct. 5 via Triple Crown Records titled Savages. Download the incredibly groovy song "Try To Understand" from the new album below.

An official tour announcement has not been made yet, but a show in Chapel Hill at Local 506 has appeared on their schedule for Sunday, Oct. 24. Tickets are $8 and are on sale now via etix.

[UPDATE: The Gay Blades are now slated to open for Florida band Fake Problems at Local 506 on Oct. 24.]

The band's live shows have been known to be somewhat unpredictable and explosive, so you'll want to check out this show.
