For Forever lands on October 27th.
US indie rock veterans The American Analog Set have announced the release of a new album.
For Forever will mark the Austin, Texas band’s first full-length project to materialise in eighteen years and is said to have been written and recorded over a six year period beginning in 2013. Scheduled for release on October 27th, the forthcoming project succeeds the venerated outfit’s 2005 album Set Free and recent news of a burgeoning partnership with archival label The Numero Group.
A statement from The American Analog Set reads,
“For those unfamiliar with The American Analog Set, this should be a simultaneously dark and vibrant introduction. Troubled lyrics permeate throughout, and the accompanying sounds are occasionally damaged and snarling. Not all things languid and dreamlike from past records have been abandoned or forgotten, but the dreams represented here are darker. While the previous eras of the band are referenced, they are carried forward and incorporated without a hint of patronizing nostalgia. For Forever is a document of a group that acknowledges their past while they advance into new territories and evolve.”
