Author & Punisher have premiered a new video for their new song “Thrush.“ This track is from the band’s new album “Nocturnal Birding,” which will be released on October 3.
Tristan Shone commented:
“This song is really the epitome of this album. When I heard the wood thrush song, it immediately made me think of Neurosis or Jesu…the melodic heart wrenching tracks like ‘The Last You’ll Know‘. The Wood Thrush made this one easy for me: I just followed the chord progression of the bird exactly.
I reached out to Lucile because I found her tattoo artwork and really loved the medieval style mixed with some Elden Ring vibes. Over the next 8 months we forged an artistic relationship that resulted in the beautiful album artwork and video. Alongside creative partner Arnaud Fournier, the two have made an epic work that elevates the song. I think I will cry when I play this live first (like when I first played ‘The Barge‘ or ‘Glorybox‘) because it is really songs like this that drive me to keep making music.”
