God Is An Astronaut announce new album ‘Embers’

GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT have announced a new album!

Titled Embers, the upcoming album from the Irish post-rock band is the follow-up to 2021’s Ghost Tapes #10, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Napalm Records.

Founded by brothers Torsten and Niels Kinsella, the band has once again created an exceptional collection of songs, inviting listeners to explore and interpret it in their own unique ways. From psych- to excellent krautrock trips, driving rhythms by drummer Lloyd Hanney and collaborations with guest musicians including Dara O’Brien, Jo Quail and Sean Coleman further intend to enrich the album’s sonic space, incorporating elements such sitar, cello, zither, shamanic drums, bowed psaltery, chimes and tanpura.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Falling Leaves. According to the band, “[Falling Leaves is] a reflective voyage through the brevity of our existence, spanning from inception to demise.”
