About Palberta5000

Two years removed from their triumphant 2018 LP Roach Going Down, which Pitchfork described as "a leap to another level" from the beloved NYC trio, Palberta are returning to deliver their clear-eyed fifth album, Palberta5000, a collection of adventurous, hyper-melodic songs that will excite their devoted following while welcoming new fans along for the ride. While long heralded as one of the most original and idiosyncratic bands in the East Coast DIY scene, earning regular comparisons to ESG, Captain Beefheart (Pitchfork) and CAN (FADER), on Palberta5000, Ani Ivry-Block, Lily Konigsberg, and Nina Ryser max out traditional pop forms, creating hits that catch in listeners brains while blowing the genre out into lush, kinetic extensions that morph into absurdist outros and haptic breakdowns to create their own hardcore style of popular music. In doing so, they have made their most accessible album by a far measure and one that is bursting at the seams with vocal hooks and exuberant playing.
