Sky
Architect will release their third album, A
Billion Years Of Solitude, on Monday – and they hope it will prove that
prog can be exciting as well as beautiful. View their video for lead trackTides below.
The
Dutch outfit’s follow-up to 2011′s A
Dying Man’s Hymn is inspired by vintage science fiction and explores themes
of space travel, wormholes, supernovae and more.
They
describe the work as “heavier, more daring and inventive” and add that they’ve
“challenged themselves more than ever before”. The result, they say, is “a
stunning outburst of creativity featuring surprising changes, crazy rhythmic
devices, polyphonic arrangements and complex song structures”.
The
young five-piece, all qualified architects, are inspired by bands including the
Flower Kings, Pain Of Salvation, Opeth, Pink Floyd, Genesis and King Crimson.
And they suggest fans of Gentle Giant and Rage Against The Machine might find it
rewarding to give them a spin.
A
Billion Years Of Solitude is released on November 4 via Galileo
Records.
