On March 6th, New York’s The Men will quickly follow up this year’s Leave Home with its third LP, Open Your Heart (via Sacred Bones). As a press release indicates, the experimental punkish quartet “explore twangy country, surf-ish riffs, psych, and just about everything in between” and “embrace what is truly their calling.” To support the release, they’ll hit the road in March for a short tour, which includes a stop at Austin’s South by Southwest. Check below for both the album’s tracklist and the full itinerary.
