Dark Toronto-based post-punk trio WHIMM is now streaming their debut album A Stare Ajar at Uproxx. The record arrives this Friday on Pleasence Records. The band, which features singer/guitarist Mounir Chami, bassist Andrew Matthews, and drummer Jonathan Pappo recorded with producer Dean Tzenos from the industrial punk outfit Odonis Odonis.
The LP was recorded in two days with engineer Ian Gomes at Toronto’s Union Sound (Fucked Up, METZ, Greys). The record includes a number of guests, including members of HSY, Scott Hardware, and visual artist Olenka Syzmonski.
The trio will be hitting the road to support the album with the low-fi indie rock group Deliluh. They'll also play a record release show on the 17th of November at Toronto's Baby G with Ice Cream, Que Lastima, and Invisible Out.
