Sunglaciers announce fourth album, Spiritual Content

1 month ago 18

Spiritual Content follows previous full-length releases Foreign Bodies (2019), Subterranea (2022), and Regular Nature (2024), and sees Sunglaciers — formed by vocalist, guitarist, and pianist Evan Resnik, drummer and producer Mathieu Blanchard, guitarist Nyssa Brown, and bassist Kyle Crough — offering their take on modern day life, with "Eye to Eye" arriving as the first preview.

Speaking on the new single, Resnik shares: "The song is about how we all have more in common with each other than we think, and how the small differences between us have been magnified to stoke division through social media and media in general. I used a lot of old footage/movies/propaganda to showcase both our creative and destructive capabilities. There's a lot of sped up footage, reversed sequences, and pretty flower timelapses. Sometimes it feels like we're racing to our inevitable demise; we have to slow down and take a step back. There's still time to recover and progress together, but it's getting a bit late in the game, you know?"

Speaking about the album, the band add: "This record is a rock and roll mosaic, a collection of songs spanning a lot of different genres—experimental rock, post-punk, art rock, etcetera—to create something new and special to us, something catchy on its surface, but that rewards deeper exploration. Spiritual Content finds us emerging from our daily grind, looking for a higher meaning, something universal. There is a softness evoked on every song, even its most energetic tracks.

"The album explores themes around love, passion, acceptance, and perseverance, inspired by real-life stories from our own lives or those of historical and contemporary figures. This record is us reaching for a higher vibration, disentangling ourselves from the dark anxieties of the modern world, and embracing the forces that lend meaning and magic to our existence."
