Tearist create mixtape for Actual Pain

We love listening to Tearist, and we love wearing Actual Pain. Combine the two and it’s a whole lotta love….soaked in bad vibes, of course. The LA band, infamous for their confrontational live shows and brutal synthpunk sounds, have crafted a fantastic mixtape for the Seattle label. With artwork by Denver’s SHAMS, the mix not only contains personal faves like Aaliyah, Swell Maps, The Sugarcubes, Blood Orange, ASAP Rocky and Colin Newman, but also features a collaboration between Yasmine Kittles and Lil B. We’ve already played it twice; better get started if you want to catch up! Grab it here.
