Irish post-rock trio God Is An Astronaut has mesmerized audiences worldwide with its distinctive sonic tapestry in dynamic live performances and through recorded works. Amidst its perpetual whirlwind of touring, the band emerges again with a freshly crafted studio album, Embers, set for release on 6 September through Napalm Records.
According to the band, the first track, "Falling Leaves", is "a reflective voyage through the brevity of our existence, spanning from inception to demise".
In support of its upcoming record release, God Is An Astronaut has also announced a busy touring schedule for 2024, with many more shows to be announced soon.
Founded by brothers Torsten and Niels Kinsella, the band has once again created an exceptional collection of songs, Embers, representing God Is An Astronaut's most extensive and exquisite production. From the very first note to the lingering resonance of its finale, Embers quietly but confidently affirms its mastery of the craft.
From psych- to excellent krautrock trips, driving rhythms by drummer Lloyd Hanney and collaborations with guest musicians including Dara O'Brien, Jo Quail, and Sean Coleman further enrich the album's sonic space, incorporating elements such as sitar, cello, zither, shamanic drums, bowed psaltery, chimes and tanpura.
Featuring artwork by the internationally renowned Irish artist David Rooney and mastered by Europe's foremost mastering engineer Streaky, God Is An Astronaut achieves remarkable heights with its forthcoming progressive, psychedelic and instrumental post-rock opus Embers! Link
