The band formerly known as Apteka debuts new material under a new name while still retaining their bright, hard-rocking and melodic update on 90s shoegaze and psychedelic rock.

A new single was just released by Notes & Bolts Records and Tapes, who, in a partnership with fellow indie label BLVD Records, will also help drop a forthcoming second album from the group.

A news release from BLVD says album number two, which follows up 2011's Gargoyle Days will see the light of day in spring/early summer. Speaking of "The Sun," here comes the new Pink Frost video for their single of the same name. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it is very psychedelic.

Bask in its arpeggiated beauty, which showcases the band's mellower, prettier side, below.
