Australian instrumental post-rockers sleepmakeswaves have released another single from their forthcoming album It’s Here, But I Have No Names For It following the addition of two more US shows to their growing world tour dates.
The band took to social media to tell fans about the new single: “Ritual Control was first demoed as Dr. Riff Has Arrived. I still wonder whether we were mistaken to have not kept the old title.
Otto originally presented the song skeleton to us with the concern that maybe the riffs were “too dumb”. In fact, Tim and I responded, they are the perfect quantity of dumb. Sure, these riffs aren’t going to earn a PhD. But they will hold down a full-time job, get the kids to school on time and read the occasional piece of challenging non-fiction on weekends. Courageous and heartfelt conversations like this are the core of what effective post-rock songwriting is all about.
New album out next month!“
