On the verge of releasing their new album, Seattle post-punk shoegaze act Nostalgist have teamed up with Ghost Cult to present a full stream for Of Loves and Days Ago (Nostalgium Directive) due out on July 10th. To celebrate the release, the band is undertaking a West Coast tour starting this Friday, with a hometown show at Barboza with VibraGun and Winnebago. A full list of dates can be seen below.
