All Them Witches Announce New Album Nothing as the Ideal out Sept. 4

All Them Witches will release their sixth long-player, Nothing as the Ideal, on Sept. 4 through New West Records. To go along with the album announcement, they’re streaming the opening song from the release, “Saturnine and Iron Jaw,” and you can find it below.

I recently had the pleasure of writing the bio for the album — still need to turn in the invoice, actually — and in talking to guitarist Ben McLeod and drummer Robby Staebler for that, it became even easier to get excited about the forthcoming collection. I’ll post that bio here at some point, and would do it now except I’m not sure if I have permission yet. So maybe later on. Still a while before September gets here anyhow.

Independent of each other, Staebler and McLeod both cited it as the work of which they’re most proud among their releases. Fair enough for any band with a new album, but the record is indeed progressive in ways they’ve never been before, their first recording as a trio allowing them to explore more direct, weighted tones, minimalist atmospheres and the use of ambient tape loops for an experimental feel throughout that ties seemingly disparate ideas together.

So, yeah, more to come. And of course I’d be remiss if I didn’t note they recorded Nothing as the Ideal at Abbey Road Studio in London. You might have heard of it, kind of a big deal. So there’s that too.

The announcement was basically the tracks and the song, and here it is:

All-Them-Witches-Nothing-as-the-Ideal

ALL THEM WITCHES – Nothing as the Ideal

We all need to stand together. Higher sense of perception. Nothing. That’s the ideal. Gentle hand of confusion. Lead me back to myself.

    The changes I’m hoping fall ushers in, in order of import: new leadership/radical changes to benefit of humanity ; further advancements toward curing the global pandemic ; and new All Them Witches. Never in my life have I wanted to skip over a season as much as summer ’20. Give us change, a cure and new riffs NOW, peas & carrots.
