The World Is A Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid To Die have always been an intense, dramatic band, and it looks like they’re moving in even more intense and dramatic directions. In the past year, the long-running Connecticut ensemble has released the grandiose, severe singles “Auguries Of Guilt” and “Beware The Centrist.” Those songs will both appear on TWIABP’s upcoming album Dreams Of Being Dust, their follow-up to 2021’s Illusory Walls. The band’s cover of Ceremony’s hardcore classic “Kersed” will not be on the album, but I’d like to imagine that the song’s spirit will help animate the work anyway.
