Earthless announce new album ‘Night Parade Of One Hundred Demons’
EARTHLESS have announced a new album!
Titled Night Parade Of One Hundred Demons, the upcoming album from the San Diego-based psychedelic rock heavyweights is the follow-up to 2018’s Black Heaven and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via Nuclear Blast Records. The release of the new album comes on the back of 2020’s Live In The Mojave Desert livestream.
“My son and I came across the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons in a book of traditional Japanese ghost stories,” bassist Mike Eginton explains about the upcoming album. “I like the idea of people hiding and being able to hear the madness but not see it. It’s the fear of the unknown.” Given the record’s inspiration, it should come as no surprise that the record strikes a more sinister tone than the rest of the band’s catalogue. “It definitely has a darker, almost evil kind of vibe compared to stuff we’ve done in the past,” drummer Mario Rubalcaba says. “There’s more paranoia and noise, and some of Isaiah [Mitchell, guitars/vocals]’s whammy-bar stuff kind of reminds me of these Jeff Hanneman moments in Reign In Blood, where it just seems like everything is going to hell. It’s pretty fun.”
