Blue Heron<\/strong> will release their new record Everything Fades<\/em> on September 27, and is now streaming the post-rock-leaning new single “We Breathe Darkness”. Equal parts earmworm and a bit of a downer, “We Breathe Darkness” is definitely one to put on repeat today\u2026 depending on your tolerance for downers.<\/p>\n “Most of our new record’s lyrics are about mortality and time passing. ‘We Breathe Darkness’ is about a ghost who’s trapped in the afterlife but hasn’t accepted it yet, wishing he can still get another chance at living. It’s more literal than metaphorical, but there’s an implied idea about living in the moment and recognizing what you have while you have it.<\/p>\n “Musically, desert rock is our stock in trade, but everyone in the band digs a broad range of stuff. After going for a straight-up rocker with our first single, you can hear our affection for more atmospheric stuff here, even dipping in a bit to post-metal territory. This is the last song we finished before heading into the studio to make the album, and it’s definitely the one with the most surprising twists as it builds.”<\/p>\n Pre-orders for Everything Fades<\/em> are available here<\/a> (and here in Europe<\/a>).<\/p>\n \n
