Purity Ring released the Graves EP earlier this year, the follow-up to their 2020 album Womb

The band is also currently on tour through North America. Shrines is a definitive document of the sounds of its time but also rises above them.

An album that creates its own vocabulary and languid way of being that stands apart from the trends that the duo was consciously engaging with.
