Unity Announce New Album Comes Back To You… / Was There Ever Unity?: Hear “3 Weeks”
There's this Oakland band called Unity, right? Not an easy name to search. When Scott assigned this post, I almost threw my laptop out the window. How am I supposed to know all this shit? I don't. I never heard of Unity. Well, now I know about Unity, and I can tell you that they are good. I guess it was worth it. The post Unity Announce New Album Comes Back To You… / Was There Ever Unity? : Hear…
There's this Oakland band called Unity, a name that's hard to search for. When their assignment was given, the reporter found it challenging to know about them. Now, they know Unity and can say that they are good. Unity released one self-titled album in 2016, which was pleasantly scrappy DIY indie pop. Bandleader Jeffrey Cheung, who is also a visual artist and zine maker, founded Unity Skateboards.
He was once part of Meat Market too. Unity is back after a long time, with a new album coming out soon. The album, named Comes Back To You.. / Was There Ever Unity?, will be released on 9/11 via Smoking Room. The song 3 Weeks, the lead single, is a zippy, catchy fuzz-bath with harmony vocals that remind of the Pastels and the Vaselines. Cheung directed the music video, a sunny slice of Oakland life.
