"The first is how stoked I was when I heard Daniel's guitar part for the middle section, it was pure melody, pure tension, and I was so thankful it was on our record. The second is I now had to add lyrics to it that succinctly expressed the essence of the part. Those of us who live with constant anxiety/depression know those almost divine moments when these issues stop for a moment and one can feel relief even though they will come again."
Alone With Heaven is due April 24 via Iodine and marks The Saddest Landscape's first album in ten years. Production credits include Steve Albini and Jack Shirley. Guest contributions come from Jeremy Bolm, Evan Weiss, and Julien Baker. The lead single "From Home They Run" features a melodic middle guitar section, lyrics capturing fleeting relief from persistent anxiety and depression, and a closing section with crashing bass and driving octave chords. A limited cloudy vinyl variant of "Where Angels Ascend" (100 copies) is available for preorder in the BV shop. The release includes multiple collaborative tracks on its tracklist.
