Australian post-rock band We Lost The Sea announce new album details & share 1st single ‘A Dance With Death’
7th April 2025Australian post-rock band WE LOST THE SEA have announced details of their fifth studio album ‘ A Single Flower’ which is due for release on Friday July 4. They state:
“The world lay wrecked before us, a quiet ruin of things lost and things that never were. The mornings came like the grinding of old gears, a slow turning toward some unknowable purpose. And yet, in the stillness of despair, the nameless rose. Not for hope, nor for meaning, but because something in the marrow of our bones whispered that to rise was the only rebellion left.”
‘A Single Flower’ follows five years after their fourth album TRIUMPH & DISASTER which was released just ahead of the pandemic and seemed to foreshadow the era of intensity which followed. It reached the Top 50 charts in Australia upon its released, and the band’s eventual tour in support of the record saw them sell out shows across Europe, the UK, Australia & Asia. The band’s breakout record was their critically-acclaimed 2015 album DEPARTURE SONGS which featured the standout track A Gallant Gentleman (featured in the Ricky Gervais series ‘Afterlife’). Departure Songs has amassed millions of streams worldwide and sold over 10,000 copies in physical formats.
Their new record features 6 tracks, among them the sprawling 10-minute epic ‘A Dance with Death’ for which a video has been released, filmed at Rancom Street Studios during the album recording sessions with producer Tim Carr.
The album also includes a special guest appearance by Sophie Trudeau from Godspeed You! Black Emperor on ‘The Gloaming.’They are also celebrating the 10th anniversary of their iconic ‘Departure Songs’ album, which they will perform in full at Post Festival USA and ArcTanGent Festival UK.
‘A Single Flower’ is available to pre-order on LP, CD & digital formats from welostthesea.com & locally via Bird’s Robe (Australia), Dunk (Europe), Translation Loss (USA) & New Noise (China).
WE LOST THE SEA will be touring the USA and UK in support of ‘A Single Flower’ throughout July & August, with further dates for Asia, Australia & Europe to be announced.
