The Antlers announce first album in over four years, Blight

“‘Carnage’ is a song about a kind of violence we rarely acknowledge — violence not born of cruelty, but of convenience,” says Peter Silberman. “Innocent creatures are swept up in the path of destruction as their world collides with ours, and we barely notice.”

The follow-up to 2021’s Green to Gold, the forthcoming album, Blight, asks many questions without offering easy answers. Over the course of nine new songs, Silberman reckons with our passively destructive tendencies – absentminded pollution, unwitting wastefulness, and the inadvertent devastation of the natural world.

2. Pour
3. Carnage
4. Blight
5. Something in the Air
