Deep Purple have premiered a new video for their new song “Guilt Trippin’.” That track will appear on the band’s new album, “SPLAT!,” which is set to be released on July 3. The single “imagines God and Charles Darwin sharing a drink in a pub, reflecting on how things on earth have not exactly worked out according to plan.” Singer Ian Gillan added:
“The song starts, and I’m in the studio. I don’t have any words for it yet. So I just start screaming. It was the pure joy of yelling it. I vowed when I was 40 that I’d stop screaming by the time I was 60. Now I’m looking back and thinking, ‘Whatever happened to that?’ So we’ll give it a go.”
Russian Circles have premiered a new video for their new song “Empath.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Nine,” which will be released on August 28. The group commented on that effort:
“The music we make is a collective process of reconciliation, navigation, and reflection upon aging both as individuals and as a creative entity. Life has created very real distances between us, but the band continues to be at the center, and this creative collaboration is a way of charting the passage of time while also giving us a reason to look to the future.”
“Nine” Track Listing:
01. “Borehole”
02. “Empath”
03. “Eluvial”
04. “E2”
