Piston Damp are set to release their 4th single from their coming sophomore album on 1st August, and it is entitled "Hard To Love You".
The track has been co-produced by Stephan Groth, and Ted Skogmann (APOP's drummer) has been helping out with percussion parts and beat production on the single as well!
It is a very 80's track, looking back to the songwriting of Vince Clarke and ABBA, and is bound to give a lot of electropopfans nostalgic feelings about their youth!
The 4-track single downloads can be pre-ordered via:
Bandcamp here: https://pistondamp.bandcamp.com/album/hard-to-love-you
Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D81M4PV8/ref=sr_1_3

Norwegian electronic band Apoptygma Berzerk (“APOP” or "APB" for short), founded by Stephan Groth in 1989, has enjoyed a successful recording career since the early '90s. With seven studio albums, three live albums, numerous singles and EPs, and an impressive catalog of remixes for other well-known artists, APOP has demonstrated a vast and varied musical palette inspired by all eras of alternative music history.
A purposefully adventurous and ambitious project, APOP has explored, expanded, and reconstructed all styles within the electronic genre utilizing an always evolving crew and assortment of musical partners. The only constant is that there is no constant, and any APOP fan knows to expect the unexpected by now! APOP marches on, and all you'll ever know is that it will be electronica, but not as we usually know it...
