Metal Anarchy

Neurosis have taken to social media to thank fans for their support following the release of their new album “An Undying Love For A Burning World.” That surprise record is their first to feature new vocalist/guitarist Aaron Turner (SUMAC, etc.).

The band said the following:

“We want to offer you all our deepest and most heartfelt gratitude. We are quite overwhelmed and more than humbled. Never in our wildest imagination could we have foreseen that our return and new album would have such a deep resonance and emotional impact. We have always tried to hold to an artistic ethos of “give everything, expect nothing” and have always made this music for ourselves, making the music we need to make at any given moment.

This experience is making it abundantly clear that what we have tapped into is much larger than ourselves or our band and that we are involved in a mutual exchange of cathartic energy that we haven’t often witnessed, especially on the cesspool of the internet. Anyone giving a piece of art or music their time and attention should never be taken for granted and you have given us more than our share.

By referring to our new music as a gift, you have given us a gift, by telling us that it lifted you up, you have lifted us up, by telling us that it has given you hope, you have given us hope. By giving our new family member such a warm welcome, and unparalleled acceptance you have validated our feeling that he is meant to be here.

As two of you so perfectly stated, “I don’t remember anything bringing this many people together, a rarity on the internet. We got our souls back.” “Healing has begun.” We wouldn’t dare take credit for this, this is on all of us. We are all in this moment together and we are all fortunate to have these emotionally purifying outlets that bring us together and give us the strength to keep going.
Thank you.”
