Pure Reason Revolution announce new album ‘Above Cirrus’
PURE REASON REVOLUTION have announced a new album!
Titled Above Cirrus, the upcoming album from the British progressive rock band is the follow-up to 2020’s Eupnea and is scheduled to be released in May this year, via InsideOut Music.
This time around, Jon Courtney, Chloë Alper & Greg Jong (who returns as a full-time member for the first time since the Cautionary Tales For The Brave EP) find themselves adapting to a world that is radically changing before their eyes, and on this new record, they intend to exorcise the isolation and uncertainty in search of something greater.
Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist/bassist/keyboardist Chloë Alper comments, “since PURE REASON REVOLUTION‘s reformation I feel that this band has embraced its identity and its place within the progressive rock genre with a force, confidence and grandeur that radiates through the work. This new record fills me with as much pride as it does head-to-toe tingles. I am excited for the music loving community to hear it and excited for the prospect of it growing our reach.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; New Kind Of Evil.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist Greg Jong says, “when Jon first played me his initial version of New Kind Of Evil, I was honestly astonished by the beautiful melding of the halftime shuffle beat with such a giant yet melodious guitar riff. Then the synth line and vocal melodies entered and elevated the emotion even further – it was a really cool moment, I hope people hearing it for the first time experience a similar feeling.” Vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Jon Courtney adds, “very excited to get the first of our new material out there in 2022. This was the first track I worked on in 2020, the embryo formed in the midst of tidal waves of uncertainty. I wanted the rollercoaster of a track to mirror that uneasiness & surreal bewilderment.”
