Explosions In The Sky just announced the release of their first proper album since 2011's Take Care, Take Care, Take Care. The album titled, The Wilderness, will be released on 4/1 by Temporary Residence.
The album's announcement was accompanied by the first single, "Disintegration Anxiety." The song stays consistent with the constant upward motion the band's songs have been known for while taking a step in another more abstract direction.
The beginning of the song is this odd orchestra sounding, robotic, muffled rhythm part which then breaks into to this mathy bass line section. The drums kick in at this weird time and it almost doesn't sound like it fits, but it does, Oh, it does.
From there the tracks flows into to this great groove. It's kind of crunchy and the drums really stand out. The guitars have this flutter and jumbled rhythm to them. Like a constant skipping heart beat. This and some variations of it play out through the rest of the track. There is this sweet surge part with either keys, or a synth, or the guitar acting as one. It's really trance-like, but not in that weird dance, rave way. Not trance like that. It's, well, it's Explosions In The Sky. Do you need more?
Stream the song and watch this cool video below!
Pre-orders for the record are up now!
