sleepmakeswaves announce new album ‘It’s Here, But I Have No Names For It’

SLEEPMAKESWAVES have announced a new album!

Titled It’s Here, But I have No Names For It, the upcoming album from the Australian post-rock band is the follow-up to 2020’s These Are Not Your Dreams, and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Bird’s Robe Records/MGM and Dunk Records.

The upcoming album was produced by the band themselves, at Golden Retriever Studios in Sydney, Australia. Written during the pandemic, it was originally recorded during 2022 just before the band embarked on a three month tour for their previous EP trilogy These Are Not Your Freams. Further recording was completed in 2023, including string arrangements by Simeon Bartholomew (SEIMS). The record was then mixed by Andrei Eremin [CLOSURE IN MOSCOW, TASH SULTANA, G FLIP, LUCA BRASI] in Philadelphia USA and mastered by Jeff Lipton and Maria Rice at Peerless Mastering in Boston USA.

Speaking about the upcoming new album, the band says, “the instrumental band SLEEPMAKESWAVES decided rock music they must save in the year twenty twenty four. Fans were clamouring for more. So they dropped a new record. It’s a rave! The mysterious phase of nothingness, crucial to the SMW creative process, is over: our new album is finally done. Thank you so much to all our listeners for your patience. It has been a slow but intense labor of love and we are proud of the songs on this record, and grateful for the many people who helped bring it to life. Hope to see you on the road in 2024, more show announcements to come, and we truly hope the new music we’re about to release resonates with you in the same way it does with us. Love SMW.”
