Out NOW – October 5, 2018 – on Cuneiform Records!
THE OPPOSITE
ALEC K. REDFEARN
AND THE EYESORES
Cuneiform Records is thrilled to announce that on October 5th, we release Alec K. Redfearn and The Eyesores' new album, The Opposite, in CD, lp and digital formats. The long-awaited follow-up to 2012's riveting Sister Death, The Opposite focuses on Redfearn’s arcane rock sensibilities and vocals, with serpentine accordion lines which lace the music with tinges of everything from Krautrock to minimalism, alternate-universe folk tunes to psychedelic prog. The Opposite may be The Eyesores' most accessible and mind-expanding to date, a mystery that rewards getting lost within.
Alec K. Redfearn & The Eyesores, now back in Providence after their European tour, will celebrate The Opposite at a Record Release Concert:
October 25 - The Parlour - 1119 North Main Street - Providence, RI 02904 |
|
Also on the horizon...
French jazz-rock ensemble Forgas Band Phenomena will release their sixth album (their fourth with Cuneiform), l'oreille électrique, on November 9, 2018.
Chamber rockers Far Corner from Wisconsin will release Risk, their third studio album on Cuneiform Records, also on November 9th.
Stay tuned for more information about these exciting new releases!
