Puscifer have announced a re-imagined album, titled Existential Reckoning: Re-Wired, due for release on 31st March 2023 via Puscifer Entertainment/Alchemy Recordings/BMG.
The release is a track-for-track re-imagining of the 12 songs from the band’s album Existential Reckoning – tracklisting details can be found below.
In light of the announcement, Puscifer have released a video for A Singularity, re-imagined by Existential Reckoning‘s Carina Round.
“Maynard’s vocal for this song is synonymously a sorrowful hymn and a siren of celebration,” Round comments. “I wanted the main vocal and the bass and drums to be anchors in a sea of jubilant chaos. A kind of controlled cacophony of celebratory joy. Familiar, but a bit unnerving. The horns and saxes at the end are all moving together but somehow so loose, dispersing off into foam and then coming back together into one harmonious wave and then breaking off again, cascading. I feel excited when it’s over and like I want to get back on the ride. Birds, a charm of finches bookend the song. You can feel their energy. And within, there’s Maynard’s lone whistle, mimicking them. The one who keeps them alive and in turn draws his own life force. The synergy of composure and chaos in a dance reverence.”
Existential Reckoning: Re-Wired is available to pre-order HERE.
