Esben and The Witch are back with a new album. The follow up to 2014’s ‘A New Nature’, ‘Older Terrors’ is an evocative fourth effort that sees the band take their haunting atmospherics to a new level – and you can hear the record in full below.
The trio explain: “‘Older Terrors’ was written and recorded over the course of a year in Germany’s capital Berlin, our adopted home. We have spent eight years getting here, sweating on stages, holed up in studios and exploring all that which inspires awe and terror.
“The album features four tracks. In this digital age of music we wanted to create a collection that worked together but could also be separated, each track standing alone, carving its own path and telling its own tale.
“This record is dedicated to the sublime. To Edward Young’s ‘Night Thoughts’, John Martin’s apocalyptic visions, Caspar David Friedrich’s forays into the forest and to the sparks of light that glimmer in times of utter darkness.”
‘Older Terrors’ is due for release on 4th November. Pre-order your copy here.
