Heavy instrumental band Russian Circles have announced they will be releasing their new LP Gnosis on August 19th which features the first single Conduit. Gnosis, is the band’s eighth album and it has the music of Russian Circles previous works as it creates a path through the bold musical sounds by adding creative songwriting. Other than making music from the practice room, each song was written and recorded independently before being shared with other band members, so their initial vision was retained. While these demos spanned the full breadth of the band’s varied styles, the more cinematic compositions were ultimately excised in favor of the physically cathartic pieces. The album was engineered and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City with additional tracking done at Chicago’s Electrical Audio.
