New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Holy Fawn, the Phoenix-based band whose 2018 DIY release, Death Spells, earned the fledgling foursome widespread recognition from both colleagues and writers, return with the eagerly-awaited album, Dimensional Bleed (Sept. 9, Wax Bodega).
"We're always going to be the same four humans making music," explains singer/guitar player Ryan Osterman of the collection that they co-produced with Mike Watts (Dillinger Escape Plan, Glassjaw). "With every release, I feel like we've continued to learn how to best support each other both mentally and musically, which enables us to try new things. Personally, I think this record has truly allowed us to explore more creative avenues than we did with Death Spells."
News of the 10-song album's impending arrival is met with the release of a second single the album, with the band releasing the album's title track this morning (link). The group released the single, and video for, "Death Is A Relief" in advance of their spring tour with Deafheaven.
"'Dimensional Bleed' vaguely refers to a concept of multiple dimensions and timelines that could exist simultaneously," adds guitar player Evan Phelps. "A lot of different media has alluded to this ideology, and I find the possibility of multiple dimensions intersecting and bleeding into others to be fascinating."
Album pre-orders, which include a selection of limited-edition vinyl variants, CD, cassette, as well as digital pre-saves, are available now here.
Holy Fawn embark on the first leg of what will be a lengthy touring cycle in support of Dimensional Bleed, on Aug. 31. The two week trek, with support from Astronoid, culminates in a return performance at Riot Fest. A U.K. headlining stint follows. Watch the new music video here:
