Unknown Mortal Orchestra Announces New EP Curse Release

News summary

Unknown Mortal Orchestra, led by Ruban Nielson, announced their new EP titled CURSE, set for release on June 18th via Jagjaguwar, following their recent album IC-02 Bogotá. The EP draws inspiration from Italian horror films of the 1970s and 1980s, aiming to reflect the current times through six cathartic tracks that blend abrasive riffs reminiscent of Black Sabbath with intricate guitar work. The lead single, "Boys With The Characteristics Of Wolves," exemplifies this style and is accompanied by a music video directed by Nielson, featuring characters from vintage horror films lip-syncing the lyrics, with speculation about AI involvement. Nielson described the EP's themes as exploring hidden goodness in humanity amidst chaos, the illusion of visible morality, and the dark amusement found in turbulent times. The EP's mood and sound serve as a soundtrack to confronting uncertainty and existential challenges, continuing the band's tradition of experimental and genre-blending music. Track highlights include both energetic and laid-back compositions, with the EP offering a complex emotional and sonic experience.
