We Lost The Sea New Album "Triumph & Disaster" in October!

Sydney cinematic instrumental band We Lost The Sea will release their long-awaited new album Triumph & Disaster on October 24 via Bird's Robe Records and dunk!records in Europe. The fourth album in their collection, Triumph & Disaster, is a post-apocalyptic view on the collapse of the world told like a children’s story and illustrated through the eyes of a mother and her son as they spend one last day on Earth. The music is the narrative for the destruction and tragedy. The words tell the story of love, loss and letting go.

The first single lifted from the album is also its opener Towers. At an expansive 15 minutes long, with its ringing guitars Towers heralds in a new era for the band. Representing the beginning and the end of everything, it is about giant oppressive forces and feelings, the towering juggernaut of power, failure, history and death.

The second track on the album, A Beautiful Collapse, picks up at the very end of our human story. When we’ve failed for too long, and chosen to ignore science and the planet’s own desperate cries, we’ve hit the tipping point. The view of the universe who watches back in on itself as we appear and disappear as a tiny blip on the cosmic radar. Or maybe it’s from the viewpoint of a particularly nonchalant omnipotent being who watches from afar with a morbid curiosity as the last death throes of humanity shudder one last time. Destruction as a form of creation. A Beautiful Collapse.

We Lost The Sea are friends who came together in 2007 to create a new collection of noise that gathers relentless crushing guitars together with otherworldly atmospherics and melody. Their widescreen post-rock has taken them all over the world and seen them share stages with like minded acts Baroness, Russian Circles, Rosetta, The Red Paintings and This Will Destroy You. Their last album Departure Songs landed the band widespread acclaim on all continents.
