RUSSIAN CIRCLES Enter Studio To Record New Album; European Tour Announced
April 1, 2011, 13 years ago
Chicago instrumental post-metal trio RUSSIAN CIRCLES has announced they are entering the studio today (April 1st) to begin recording material for a fourth album.
Brandon Curtis (THE SECRET MACHINES, INTERPOL) who produced the band's previous album, Geneva, is producing and mixing the new collection of songs at Phantom Manor in Chicago,IL.
This marks the band's first full-length to be released worldwide exclusively via Sargent House.
Bassist Brian Cook comments: "A lot of the mood going into this album has been reflective on the last couple years of touring. We have a ton of material. We're excited to get into recording and be somewhat sheltered from the outside world. We're going to try to make the same ebb and flow of our live set happen on the record, with more constructive dynamics and dramatic bridging between songs. We want to experiment in similar ways that we did with strings and embellishments on Geneva, but we don't want to have songs that won't sound the same in a live setting."
Russian Circles will then take to the road this summer in Europe on a co-headlining tour with new label mates Japanese heavy-psych trio BORIS. Tour dates will be announced soon.
Russian Cirles is:
Mike Sullivan – guitar
Dave Turncrantz – drums
Brian Cook - bass
