Elder have previewed the five-song, 56-minute album with a stream of the track “Embers” (https://youtu.be/-QCXTizosLc), which singer/guitar player said is “one of the most energetic and upbeat songs Elder has ever made, and really became the favorite to play while rehearsing to record Omens. It’s maybe the least traditionally heavy track from the record, but it’s certainly dense. Lots of interlocking guitar and bass lines, keyboards, synthesizer solos (thanks to our friend Fabio Cuomo!) – you can hear that we had plenty of fun making this album. Like any Elder song, it’s best heard in contest, and we’re excited to release the full record soon!”
