The grippingly titled, The Quicksand of Existing, is the third single off the coming album by the doom metal greats, Pallbearer. Forgotten Days will be the band's fourth full length, and the follow up to 2017's Heartless.
The forthcoming LP was produced by Randall Dunn (Sunn O))), Earth), and the band have already described it as "a reflection on family and loss."
"As we strive to be, the forces of entropy perpetually pull us down into a state of being unmade,” says bassist and songwriter Joseph D. Rowland about the new single which comes with a video directed by Ben Meredith. “The body degrades; the mind and memories fray into unwoven threads, no longer connected to the rich fabric of the self. Choices made upon our separate and conjoined paths may find us engulfed in a mire of our unmaking. I wanted this song to face this reality with a grim determination.”
Forgotten Days comes out on October 23rd, 2020.
