Dance Gavin Dance‘s new in-studio live recording of “The Robot With Human Hair, Pt. 3” has just been shared online. It’s taken from their upcoming “Tree City Sessions 3” compilation, which saw the gold-certified post-hardcore band run through twelve songs from their catalog live in the studio and give them a modern update of sorts.
Vocalist Andrew Wells said of tackling this particular cut from the group’s 2008 self-titled sophomore album:
“The entire ‘Tree City Sessions‘ series has given us the opportunity to showcase each lineup’s strengths on various songs throughout the entire catalog. Growing up I was a huge fan of the Deathstar album, so being able to emulate Kurt and bring my own passion to this version of Robot 3 was truly an honor.”
A June 19th release date has been set for the third entry in the “Tree City Sessions” series, with the physical release to feature extra bonus tracks. It’s no coincidence that this latest track arrived today, May 05th, given that the band’s North American headlining tour will launch tonight. That trek will take place as follows:
