After much anticipation, Buffalo emo-rock band The Traditional has released their new EP, The Queen of Heaven, with Anchor Eighty Four Records. Fans can purchase the record now at www.thequeenofheaven.info.

Fans are also invited to stream The Queen of Heaven at Bandcamp.

The Queen of Heaven is a clear testament to the raw talent of The Traditional. Their music exudes maturity and authenticity as they meld elements of alternative rock, emo-rock and punk rock for an enthralling listening experience. Tracks like “Thirty” and “She Don’t Know” capture fans in a whirlwind of emotion and self-reflection as the band tells tales of lost innocence and growing up.

The Traditional, made up of Anthony Musior, Jon Coric (drums, backing vocals) and Mike Bienias (guitar), formed in Buffalo, NY in 2012 and have since become one of the local scene’s fastest rising bands. The Queen of Heaven, their follow up to 2014’s How To Live Without Blood, was produced, engineered and mixed by Jay Zubricky (Pentimento, Every Time I Die, Head North) and mastered by Jesse Cannon (Acceptance, Basement, Saves The Day, Somos).

Fans can catch the band at a handful of album release shows in April. Additional touring is expected to be announced soon.
