Suicide Squeeze Records recently released The World Is Too Much With Us, the new LP from Vancouver-based band, Peace. The group, who are currently finishing up a North American tour (which included a west coast leg with label-mates and fellow Vancouverites, Nü Sensae), just unveiled the Liam Mitchell-directed video for “Your Hand In Mine” (See SPIN debut).

The band recorded its sophomore LP in Pamela Anderson’s hometown, a fogged-in hamlet named Ladysmith on the east coast of Vancouver Island. The World is Too Much With Us builds on the depth and drama latent in Peace’s sound. Connor’s bass-lines menace and hypnotize. Mike’s guitar solos explode suddenly in wah-pedal freak-outs. Geoff’s tom-toms thud with a tribal intensity. And Dan’s lyrics, for which he’s been referred to as Vancouver’s “post-punk poet laureate”, alternate between images of defiant despair and love-sick yearning.
