TesseracT have announced their first new album since 2018’s
Sonder.
Due out on September 15 via Kscope, the record is called War Of
Being, and it’ll come as no surprise that it’s got a pretty ambitious backstory…
“War Of Being has been all-encompassing for us since late 2019,”
explains bassist Amos Williams. “After I returned home from filming P O R T A L
S I found myself in such a deeply introspective headspace. The scale of work
and reward from that project kind of set this up to be inevitable. We simply
had to try and see how far we could take a concept album with TesseracT.
“Within these songs the band has given life to the themes and
ideas that are personified within the characters of The Strangeland story. It’s
certainly been a catharsis and a way for me to explore the internal dissonance.”
