December 5, 2025— Today, Los Angeles band Together Pangea shares the last single, “Home,” ahead of their new album, Eat Myself, on January 16, 2026. Eat Myself sees the trio – William Keegan, Danny Bengston, and Erik Jimenez – expanding upon their earlier garage rock and surf roots as they explore new sonic territory, drawing inspiration from acts like Deftones, Smashing Pumpkins, and My Bloody Valentine, among others. Listen HERE. | | Produced in LA by three-time Grammy Winner and producer, Mikey Freedom Hart (Taylor Swift, Blood Orange, Wallice, and Lana Del Rey), Eat Myself marks a bold new era for Together Pangea, trading the restless angst of their twenties for a darker but calmer confidence earned through experience and growth. | | Together Pangea has also announced a short stint of headline shows in January, including a record release show in Los Angeles at Teragram Ballroom, plus stops in Pioneertown and Tucson. See all dates below. Tickets here. | | | 1/16/2026 – Los Angeles, CA – Teregram Ballroom *RECORD RELEASE SHOW | 1/17/2026 – Pioneertown, CA – Pappy & Harriet’s | 1/18/2026 – Tucson, AZ – Club Congress | | | Over fifteen years into their career, the band finds themselves in a unique position: still evolving, still relevant, and still more vital than ever. 2025 has already marked some of their biggest milestones, including a highly coveted debut appearance at Coachella and the largest shows of their career to date, as shining proof like The El Rey in Los Angeles with support from Prison Affair. | | Since they began as a band, the trio has been pushing boundaries with each subsequent offering. Jelly Jam [2010] poured the gasoline, Living Dummy [2011] struck the match, and Badillac[2014] lit the fire with its revved-up nineties rock-inspired flames, followed by The Phage [2015], Bulls and Roosters [2017], DYE [2021], and their most recent, Misery[2024]. They’ve racked up millions of Spotify streams, garnered critical acclaim from the likes of LA Times, Alt Press, NTS, Consequence, Pitchfork, Stereogum,Brooklyn Vegan, and Rolling Stone, and toured with acts like Jimmy Eat World, FIDLAR, and Alkaline Trio. | | Their highly anticipated sixth studio album, Eat Myself, follows a long gap since their stellar 2021 effort, DYE. Admittedly, a lot has changed for Together Pangea in many ways, a reflection of a band coming of age gracefully in real time. | | “I feel like there is less anxiety with this record,” Keegan shares. “Though this record is darker, there is still this sense of calm that really comes from age.” This makes sense considering both Keegan and Jimenez have since settled into fatherhood and married life, trading the angst of their twenties for a newfound wisdom and inner peace. | | Bengston agrees, adding, “I’d also like to think our songwriting is constantly maturing. We’re getting better at this thing that we’ve been doing for a long time, and I think that shows with every album.” | Sonically, Eat Myself is a far cry from the band’s earlier garage rock and surf roots. Instead, it offers a sharp distillation of their artistic range, including an emphasis on their heavier, grunge-leaning tendencies—or what Keegan describes as “bubble grunge,” a sound they first began exploring on their 2014 record Badillac. Take for example, songs such as “Sunkin” and the title track “Eat Myself,” which could easily be mistaken for lost relics from Seattle’s grunge era of the nineties. | | In many ways, Eat Myself could very well be the band’s most fully realized album. At the helm was Grammy Award-winning producer Mikey Freedom Hart. While Keegan confesses that the writing and recording process was “difficult and emotionally draining at times,” the band credits Hart as a beacon of “good vibes” and guidance in helping them discover their true artistic intentions. “We’ve pretty much always been in control on our previous albums, but we relinquished that control this time with Mikey, which ended up being a really cool experience. He even came up with the track list himself,” Keegan shares. | | “Working with Mikey was like having a fourth member in the band,” Bengston adds. “He plays several instruments all over the record as well and really brought some cool layers to the project.” | | With the arrival of Eat Myself, Together Pangea is once again making a bold and uncompromising artistic statement, showing no signs of slowing down. Now over fifteen years into their career, the trio finds themselves in a unique position: still evolving, still relevant, and still more vital than ever. | | “I think we’ve gotten to the point where I can’t imagine any event that would cause us to break up,” Bengston says with confidence. Keegan adds in agreement, “It’s hard to keep a band together for this long, let alone fifteen years, but we’re like brothers. At this point, we’re just true lifers. Making music is what we’re going to do no matter what.” |
