The Vintage Caravan release new song ‘Philosopher’

THE VINTAGE CARAVAN have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Philosopher, is the second single taken from the band’s upcoming studio album, Portals, which is scheduled to be released in September this year via Napalm Records. The track features a guest appearance from Mikael Åkerfeldt of OPETH.

Speaking about the new song, bassist Alexander Örn Númason says, “THE VINTAGE CARAVAN proudly present our new single Philosopher which features none other than the amazing Mikael Åkerfeldt from OPETH on lead vocals! Having toured extensively with OPETH the last years we made quite good friends with them and we were so honored when Mikael offered to lend us a helping hand with our new album. Originally Óskar meant to sing the whole song but after discussing the possibility of having Mikael guest on one of the songs I couldn’t hear the song anymore without him singing the verses. He did a stellar job and we couldn’t be more happy with it.

Philosopher is the opening track of our album and we wanted to start this album with a more quiet dreamy intro leading into this quite heavy song. Full of laid back rock riffs with bubbling arpeggiating synth textures, the song leads into the first Portal of five signaling the beginning of this journey of an album.”

Portals is scheduled to be released on September 26th this year via Napalm Records. Pre-orders are available here.
