In the works since February, Kylesa will be releasing their seventh studio album, Exhausting Fire on October 2nd, via Season of Mist. This latest track, “Night Drive” follows the release of two other songs, “Lost and Confused,” and “Shaping The Southern Sky.”
Guitarist Phillip Cope recently told The Aquarian about the changes from their previous album, 2013’s Ultraviolet:
“I wouldn’t say there’s any major changes—I think all the elements that have been there on all our other albums are still there. I think there’s some additional things. We’re learning to be better vocalists—Laura [Pleasants] and I are both putting a lot of work into vocals for this album, and I’m pretty proud of it. I think we did probably the best job we’ve done on an album yet. At least we feel that way, we tried. And we’re getting more and more into the electronic aspect of things as well, so we kind of started getting more of that on Ultraviolet and on this album there’s even more. At the same time, there’s still plenty of heaviness. So I think it’s just—hopefully it’s seen as an improvement of things we’ve already done.”
Kylesa will be back on the road next month and well into November with the likes of Inter Arma, Indian Handcrafts, Irata, and Fall of Troy.
