Album is out, here's the last 3 songs (plus the album version of Cumbé)






The only thing I'm not happy about with this release is that it's really an EP being sold as an album. Only 6 original songs (total about 20mins) with a giant 20 cover tagged on, after it being 5 years since the previous album. It's a fantastic cover, but I'd trade it for 20 more minutes of original material.
I have a pet peeve about bands putting covers on mainline studio albums.

I really dig the 6 originals here though. Terracentric is probably my favourite at the moment.

Cool, thanks for the tip, I'll check them out.

They're great live. Incidentally, they blast The Pot over the PA right before they hit the stage.
