Acclaimed California-based band Deafheaven have revealed the second new song ‘Come Back‘ off their upcoming album ‘New Bermuda‘ which arrives October 2nd on Anti-.
Digital pre-orders at iTunes for New Bermuda are available [Here] and come with an instant download of ‘Come Back‘ as well as the earlier released track, ‘Brought to the Water‘. CD and vinyl copies can be pre-ordered [Here].
George Clarke (vocals), Kerry McCoy (guitar), Dan Tracy (drums), Stephen Lee Clark (bass), and Shiv Mehra (guitar) recorded ‘New Bermuda‘ live to tape at 25th Street Recording in Oakland, CA and Atomic Garden Recording in East Palo Alto, CA back in April. It was produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Jack Shirley who has worked with the band on their previous releases.
The album artwork is an oil painting, dense in brush strokes of darker tones and deep blues, by Allison Schulnik. The layout was designed by art director Nick Steinhardt.
Clarke says that he came up with the idea of ‘New Bermuda‘ to describe a new destination in life, a nebulous point of arrival, and an unknown future where things get swallowed up and dragged into darkness
Formed in 2010 in San Francisco, California, the band has released two studio albums on Deathwish; ‘Roads to Judah‘ in 2011 and their lauded ‘Sunbather‘ in 2013.
Deafheaven have spent the last two years touring extensively nationally and around the world with shows in Australia, Japan, Asia, Europe, Russia, the UK, and Canada with festival appearances at Pitchfork, Bonnaroo, Primavera, Roskilde, Fun Fun Fun, FYF Fest, SXSW, Basilica Sound Scape 14, Corona Capital, ATP Iceland, amongst others.
