Iguana Sign to Tonzonen; Announce New Album Translational Symmetry

German progressive heavy rockers Iguana were last heard from with their 2015 full-length, Cult of Helios (review here), and though they’ve always been around and continued to do live shows, there hasn’t been much word of a follow-up. With the news that they’ve signed to Tonzonen Records for their next release and the announcement that said outing will be called Translational Symmetry, we come the closest we have yet to concrete evidence that, yes, such a thing exists.

And not like the footprint in the snow automatically means there’s a yeti. I mean like at some point the album will be out. As to what point, well, that’s still a little blurry on the horizon, but there’s plenty of 2019 left if it might happen then, or there’s always next year, though waiting that long would only seem to tempt the planet to open wide and swallow humanity whole before the thing is released. Which would be a bummer.

If you’d like a refresher, the Bandcamp stream of Cult of Helios is below. Here’s news from Tonzonen‘s site and the band’s social media:

IGUANA SIGNED TO TONZONEN RECORDS

I’m very happy to announce that IGUANA signed to Tonzonen Records for the new album.

We are in contact since one year and now we can start the collaboration.

More infos about the forthcoming album coming soon.

IGUANA can be found somewhere in the stylistic abyss that comprises symphonic Kraut, Stoner-beats, Nostalgic Grunge, British Invasion and Dreampop-Crooners. Rarily has Fuzz Rock sounded this diverse and experimental – at least not since the legendary Desert Sessions, which certainly struck a chord with the IGUANA boys. For a while now, they’ve been brewing up something of their own, carefully side-stepping the mainstream and any stereotypes, but dropping little pearls from the genre every now and then. And they’ve been playing with all sorts of acts (like Brant Bjork, Saint Vitus, Colour Haze, Kadavar, and Samsara Blues Experiement) at gigs and festivals, and on tours all across Europe.

Says the band: “We are happy to realize our next record ‘Translational Symmetry’ in cooperation with the Krefeld label Tonzonen. When, how and where – you’ll find out soon!”

Please welcome IGUANA.

    Wow! Sounds great! “Cult of helios” was my absolute favorite album 2015. I’m very curious how the new LP will sound. It’s always exciting how different the band can sound.
