Besra give us a peak into their forthcoming full-length, Transitions, out September 29 via Suicide Records. Check it out with us first.
Drummer Ville Kaisla says about the album:
“Transitions revolves around confronting the complexities of human behavior and the tumultuous landscapes we create—both in our social behavior and to the world around us. Only change is constant, and often painful–whether it’s about the world situation, human relationships, your daily state of mind, or even our band’s musical development. The oldest song on the album is over five years old, and the freshest one was completed just a few weeks before recording sessions started. In this sense, the album became an interesting cross-section of the transformation we have gone through ourselves.”
The Finnish prog, post-everything band are constantly reinventing and reimagining their sound, and their second record expands on their narrative even further.
“At the beginning, the band struggled with the diversity of the songs, but unified long recording sessions and carefully considered song order ultimately created a cohesive yet versatile album,” adds vocalist Hannes Hietarinta. “Magnus (Lindberg, Cult of Luna) also did an excellent job with the mixing, adding depth, warmth, and tightness to our sound!”
