Project Pitchfork’s new album and single out soon
Tuesday, January 13th, 2009
The well-respected veteran industrial electro and darkwave outfit Project Pitchfork fronted by the ever-prolific Peter Spilles has finally come out with their new album: Dream, Tiresias!. It will be available February 27th, and it’ll be preceded by the single Feel!, which will be out in just over a week on the 23rd. Dream, Tiresias! is Project Pitchfork’s first full album since Kaskade which was released
already four years ago in 2005, although they do have put out an odd single and EP here and there. The new album appears to be a concept album of sorts, with each track having a second title like “First dream”, “Second dream” and so on, and the piece of news on the official site tells us that Dream, Tiresias! will show the true essence of Project Pitchfork. I’m always up for a good concept album, and also unleashing a band’s true nature certainly doesn’t make matters worse very often, so sounds good to me.
Dream, Tiresias! will be available in three different set-ups: the Europe-only basic and limited special editions, and also a limited US edition with three bonus tracks picked from the Feel! single which won’t be released outside Europe. The European special set will feature a second disc alongside the album itself, an MCD with three additional tracks. Two are new,
and one is a remix of the song One Million Faces which was released in 2007. And oh yeah, the single Feel! will be EP-length and boast a total of nine tracks, eight of which are remixes by various big names like [:SITD:] and Die Krupps - you can see them all after the break in the tracklist.
For a taster of Dream, Tiresias! you should head to Pitchfork’s MySpace, there’s one full track and four snippets from the upcoming album for you to listen. Both the single and the basic version of the album are preorderable at Amazon.de (single, album) and Infrarot.de (single, album), and Isotank has the US version. Metropolis will presumably distribute the album and sell it at some point as well, seeing as they’re Pitchfork’s label of choice on the other side of the Atlantic. The special edition with the additional CD I wasn’t able to find anywhere, but maybe it’ll emerge at one point or the other.
