Esben And The Witch have announced the release of their latest - and third - album, 'A New Nature'. Produced by Steve Albino at his Chucsgo studio, and out on September 1 thru their own imprint, Nostromo Records, they precede its release with the close-to-eight-minute long track, 'Blood Teachings'.
The new material follows last year's 'Wash Thee Sins Not Only The Face', and their split album with Thoughtforms earlier this year.
Esben and the Witch say of the album: "We wanted to create a record that had a level of purity to it. To strip away the layers and loops and see what lay beneath. To keep things naked, unadorned and raw. The three of us, in a room, making noise. We looked to create a more primal record, full of human emotion and sonic intensity. Drawing on themes of endurance, strength, determination and self-actualisation. Themes that have always inspired us but perhaps, only now, a few years down the line, a few years of touring under our belts, we feel we have the confidence and maturity to explore and shout about."
Esben And The Witch play an album launch show at Oslo in London on September 4.
