The Shivas’ You Know What To Do Coming October 28th

The Shivas Announce New LP You Know What To Do,
Out October 28th via K

Portland’s The Shivas have announced the release of their fourth LP, You Know What To Do, out October 28th on Olympia-based label K and on cassette via Burger Records. Having drawn comparisons to bands like Thee Oh Sees and Black Lips, The Shivas blend elements of surf-pop, garage-rock, and good old fashioned rock ‘n’ roll, dousing their hook-filled melodies with a healthy dose of reverb. As a preview of the upcoming release, they’ve shared album track “Manson Girls” via BrooklynVegan.

Recorded at K’s own Dub Narcotic Studios and mixed on tape by Calvin Johnson, You Know What To Do is a collection of fuzzy, frenetic jams and hazy slower tunes that feature dreamy male & female harmonies. The Shivas have shared stages with Spiritualized, The Dandy Warhols, The Fresh & Onlys and La Luz, and will kick off a North American tour on October 1st in support of their new release.
