Already riding high on the ‘80s-flavored ambition of its stellar April full-length, Escape Forever, Soft Kill upped the ante in September with a surprise EP, Roseland.

The three-pack of songs is a study in coldwave colored with a fun cover of Dag Nasty’s “Circles.”

While Tobias Sinclair’s band in many ways defined 2010s post-punk, it continues to create and evolve its sound and live shows like this one where Atlanta’s Skim opens.

Tickets to see Soft Kill play Crowbar in Ybor City, Florida on Sunday, Nov. 10 are still available and start at $20.
