Beginning January 23 in Providence, Aviator will pilot a month-long tour which will include several stops in New England. The Boston-based hardcore band recently released its “Covers” EP, adding a rougher edge to songs by bands like As Tall As Lions and LCD Soundsystem. If you want a taste of the band’s own songwriting, try out the “January 2013” EP, which includes six live recordings that showcase the band’s precision and vocalist TJ Copello’s captivating mix of speak-singing and screaming. You can check out the full list of tour dates below. – Jake Reed
