Los Angeles-based quartet Pattern-Seeking Animals (PS-A) is once again poised to redefine the progressive rock landscape with their upcoming album, Spooky Action At A Distance, out on InsideOutMusic on October 27.
The album's first single, "Window To The World," immediately captivates with its high-energy, up-tempo art-rock infused with elements of ska and reggae. Demonstrating the band's fearless approach to experimentation, the single introduces listeners to a sonic universe that is both innovative and nostalgic. Watch the official video here.
Spooky Action At A Distance finds Pattern-Seeking Animals more confident than ever, approaching new soundscapes and topics, showcasing their evolution, and commitment to pushing their own creative boundaries.
John Boegehold explains, “Because this is our fourth release in less than five years, my intention was to shift gears and not go over ground that's already been covered. In addition to using different sounds, textures and musical styles, we approached the vocals, especially backing vocals from a fairly different angle. In addition, the album was recorded, mixed and mastered at a different studio with a different engineer than our previous three releases.”
The different approach is not only noticeable in production and sounds, but in the lyrics as well. “The subject matter of the lyrics include a Norse king contemplating life while being conquered, an aging seeker on the path toward enlightenment, aliens hunting down humans trying to evade capture, the life of a conflicted soldier before and after WW1, a pregnant teenager leaving a bad situation at home, a reluctant hero victorious in her final battle and a guy’s girlfriend who leaves him because of his conspiracy theories.”
