IRISH POST ROCK QUARTET TO RELEASE SOPHOMORE ALBUM THIS MAY
Ireland’s Overhead, The Albatross return with the colossal and expansive new track Your Last Breath, out March 7 via Nice Weather for Airstrikes. A sprawling piece experimenting with elements of Prog, Math, Dance and what the band are already well loved for: Post Rock.
Subtly bridging the gap between the familiar and the extraordinary within post-rock, OTA intertwine strings, electronics, and synths with the raw energy of guitars and drums. Re-emerging as a quartet after a reflective hiatus, their upcoming sophomore album promises a journey that’s both expansive and intimately woven, signalling their quiet yet profound evolution.

Overhead, The Albatross – Your Last Breath (orcd.co)
The new album, out in May 2024, promises to be both a homage to their roots and a daring leap into uncharted territory. Fans can anticipate the familiar embrace of cinematic soundscapes and atmospheric grandeur, coupled with surprising new textures that challenge and inspire.
Overhead, The Albatross describe Your Last Breath as “a song that both mourns death, loss, and grief, and celebrates the awe and beauty of this life we all share with one another.”
