Cave In recently announced their new record Heavy Pendulum alongside a pretty crushing new single. Now the band is back with the spacier side of their sound thanks to "Blinded By A Blaze," which we've heard a few times during live performances over the past year.
"I had the idea for 'Blinded By A Blaze' during the Final Transmission days, but it really came to life for Heavy Pendulum," said guitarist and vocalist Stephen Brodsky. "There were 5 or 6 songs in the initial batch of demos that I sent to the band at the beginning of the writing process, but 'Blinded' was the one that created a call to action – it's basically what sold JR, Adam & Nate on writing a new Cave In album.
"Lyrically, it's a sonic photograph of a strange magical moment that I had while driving along the Pacific Coast Highway during the golden hour, and the feeling of looking back on it years later – something everyone should try to experience at least once in their lifetime."
Heavy Pendulum is out May 20. Pre-orders are available here.
