Last year, Louisville rockers White Reaper returned with Only Slightly Empty, their first album since their rhythm section left the band. Next month, they'll head out on a co-headlining tour with Drug Church, with Spy, Death Lens, and Public Opinion on board as openers. That's a great bill! I'm looking forward to it, mostly because I love Drug Church but also because I'm curious to see how White Reaper do in a stagedive-heavy environment. By the time the tour kicks off, the White Reaper deluxe edition will be out.
Next month, White Reaper will release Only Slightly Expanded, a version of Only Slightly Empty with three new tracks. One of those new tracks is the grand, charged-up garage-grunge single "Need," and that one is out today. Check out "Need" and White Reaper's tour dates below.
