Insect Ark announce new album ‘The Vanishing’

INSECT ARK have announced a new album!

Titled The Vanishing, the upcoming album from the psychedelic doom duo follows 2018’s Marrow Hymns and is scheduled to be released in February.

The upcoming Colin Marston-engineered opus serves as the band’s third studio album, and most harrowing and punishing record to date. Though many of its segments veer off into mind-expanding outer realms, the interplay between the bass, lap steel guitar, synths, and drums represent a strong and defiant collection of songs that demand your exclusive attention forcefully. It’s heavier, darker, and denser than anything INSECT ARK has ever done before.

Speaking about the upcoming album, Dana Schechter from the band says, “the album’s title refers to a recurring daydream I had of disappearing completely – floating out to sea alone, and never being found. On a much bigger level, it’s about the impermanence of life itself, trying to retain perspective of how small we really are.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first song from the upcoming album; titled Tectonic.
