Citizens of the world, grab your dancing boots: The Rapture is coming. No, Harold Camping still hasn’t gotten it right; instead, the eponymous NYC dance-punk trio are gearing up for an album listening party tonight (August 16th) through Ustream. Similar to their past DFA White Out Session, in which the band debuted “How Deep Is Your Love”, the group will stream their forthcoming album In The Grace Of Your Love on vinyl test pressing beginning at 8:30 p.m. EDT. Then, at 9:30 p.m. EDT, the threesome will answer fan-submitted questions (to send yours in, tweet them to @itstherapture). A lucky few fans who tweet a question or join the Facebook event (here) will win signed band merchandise. Best Rapture ever!
Can’t make it tonight? The chat will be archived through Ustream for 48 hours. Or, just see the band sometime live this fall. If you plan on attending tonight, however, the chat goes down here or just head below at the appropriate time.
In The Grace Of Your Love officially hit stores on September 6th via James Murphys DFA Records.
