It’s Everything Everything’s seventh studio record.
Everything Everything have confirmed the March 1st release of their new album Mountainhead.
Leading off is first single Cold Reactor after sessions took place at Eve Studios in Stockport and Ludwick House in Shropshire, as the band continued their prophetic curiosity with AI.
“In another world, society has built an immense mountain,” Jonathan Higgs said. “To make the mountain bigger, they must make the hole they live in deeper and deeper.”
All of society is built around the creation of the mountain, and a mountain religion dominates all thought. At the top of the mountain is rumoured to be a huge mirror that reflects endlessly recurring images of the self, and at the bottom of the pit is a giant golden snake that is the primal fear of all believers.
“A ‘Mountainhead’ is one who believes the mountain must grow no matter the cost, and no matter how terrible it is to dwell in the great pit. The taller the mountain, the deeper the hole.”
