'AWAKE IN SLUMBERLAND' OUT NOW The Time Of The Assassins' new record 'Awake In Slumberland', recorded at Electrical Audio by Steve Albini, is out now. Combining the band’s penchant for slow, repetitive trance music, like epic 16 minute track ‘The Return’, the sprawling ‘Mad A’ and the instrumental ‘The Double’ with the apocalyptic post-punk of ‘Bones’ and ‘70 Days & 70 Nights’ and more experimental numbers like the tribal ‘The Valley Of The Kings’, the war-opera battle call ‘Prayer’ and the pounding electricity of ‘Math’, 'Awake In Slumberland' paints a landscape which is populated by ghosts, mythology, intoxication, madness and electricity that builds slowly to its frenzied climax, leaving the listener in an altered, almost disorientated state. (More info here) U.S. TOUR DATES TTOTA are currently playing their first-ever set of shows in the U.S. - dates are posted left, with more to be announced.
