A Place To Bury Strangers

A Place to Bury Strangers are an American, New York City-based noise rock band, composed of Oliver Ackermann, John Fedowitz and Sandra Fedowitz (drums). The band, commonly known by the initials APTBS, play a heavy, atmospheric Wall of Sound–influenced blend of psychedelic rock, shoegaze and space rock. A likely source of inspiration for the band's name is the 1898 Aleister Crowley poem "Aceldama", subtitled: "A place to bury strangers in".
