Red Sparowes announce new album

By | Published on Thursday 25 February 2010

Instrumental post-rock band Red Sparowes, who count members of Isis amongst their line-up, have announced that they will release their third album, ‘The Fear Is Excruciating, But Therein Lies The Answer’, via Conspiracy Records on 5 Apr.

Produced by Toshi Kasai (Comets On Fire, The Fucking Champs, The Melvins), it is also the band’s first album with Nocturnes guitarist Emma Ruth Rundle.

You may also be pleased to know that the band have eschewed the ridiculously long titles that featured on previous albums ‘At The Soundless Dawn’ and particularly second album ‘Every Red Heart Shines Towards The Red Sun’, which featured the catchy-sounding, ‘And By Our Own Hand Did Every Last Bird Lie Silent In Their Puddles, The Air Barren Of Song As The Clouds Drifted Away. For Killing Their Greatest Enemy, The Locusts Noisily Thanked Us And Turned Their Jaws Toward Our Crops, Swallowing Our Greed Whole’.

Look, these titles are positively monosyllabic in comparison:

Truths Arise
In Illusions Of Order
A Hail Of Bombs
Giving Birth To Imagined Saviors
A Swarm
In Every Mind
A Mutiny
As Each End Looms And Subsides
