Astronoid share A New Color, which is lifted from the forthcoming self-titled sophomore album (on Feb. 1 via Blood Music). Take a listen via YouTube below.
“We knew ‘A New Color’ would open the record as soon as it was written,” explains Brett Boland. “The mood of this album is much different than Air. This is the closest I’ve been to wearing my heart on my sleeve. It feels real and true. ‘A New Color’ was a pivotal point in the writing process that solidified the direction we wanted to move in and a perfect place to start.”
The band previously shared a video for I Dream In Lines (https://youtu.be/ngpd38ruqxo). Physical and digital pre-orders of ‘Astronoid,’ which include instant downloads of both I Dream In Lines and A New Color, are available now via districtlines.com/Astronoid and blood-music.com/store.
Immediately after the release of the album, the band returns to the road, joining Between The Buried and Me and Tesseract for a month-long U.S. tour.
