During these strange times, WMSE aims to keep you connected to your local music community by getting up close and personal in conversation while taking a listen to new local projects, albums and songs. On Tuesday, April 26th, we talk with Milwaukee’s CONVERT about the release of their debut record, SAVES.

CONVERT is a five-piece union, formed by veteran members of Milwaukee’s storied scenes. Members of Burning Sons, Get Rad, Assault & Battery and Cry Coyote. Their sound has been described as a zeroed-in blast from the center of a post-punk, goth and industrial triangle.

The band’s debut – SAVES – is a hybridized but fully-realized sound that sits well in a time where variety is the norm and the barriers of genres all but cease to exist. Get a taste of the new record on Local/Live before its official release at the X-Ray Arcade on Friday, April 29th.
