You may know Emma Ruth Rundle as the guitarist of the post-rock outfit Red Sparowes, but she is also the founder of The Nocturnes, a Los Angeles-based quartet that gracefully meshes folk, chamber pop, goth, post-rock, and shoegaze into an atmospheric wall of sound. The foursome recently announced an August 30th release of Aokigahara, the band’s sophomore effort via Errant Child Records, and as a teaser released a video for the haunting first single, “The Road.” Check out The Nocturnes at Pehrspace on August 26. – Katrina Nattress
