The Crosses “Outlier” releases officially tomorrow, April 17th 2026. Triple Eye Industries exclusive yellow vinyl variant. Die Kreuzen’s Danny Kubiniski new(ish) band, their first full-length release featuring original Crosses material. We headed over to Wiggle Room last night for the record release spin: here a couple of poorly photographed images, one of Martin (of Triple Eye) and Danny spinning records and one of Martin and Fran (also Triple Eye plus the LP cover artist). Outlier is a mix of sludge and speed, noisy punk’d and metal’d hard rock with shreds galore, soaring vocals (Danny’s voice is still incredible all these years post-Die Kreuzen) and heavy beats (from the hype sticker “Great sounds and performances all around. The mix is amazing, drums are everywhere and vox scream!” — Kim Thayil, Soundgarden). Side A has three Crosses originals/new material: the thundering opener “Nails” – no easing into this release!, the speed punk “Hate Market,” and the growling “Natronium” that includes a wicked guitar solo (Jim Potter).  Side B has two covers including Die Kreuzen’s “Man in the Trees” (from the 1986 album October File) and Hüsker Dü’s “I’ll Never Forget You” (from Zen Garage, 1984). Both are just as loud and fast as the originals but have much superior and modern production sound. I’m super stoked to catch The Crosses at a secret show next weekend.
