Wicca Phase Springs Eternal has announced a new EP, Midnight at the Castle Moorlands, which drops on October 25 through Run for Cover. Along with the announcement, the Pennsylvania-based singer and multi-instrumentalist has shared a new single called ‘Venti Iced Americano’. Check it out below.
“‘Venti Iced Americano’ is a depiction of in-between moments and places, where time is both rapid and heavily delayed, and feelings are both forward-looking and nostalgic,” Adam McIlwee explained in a statement. “For visual references, see Westworld season 2 episode 10 (“The Passenger”) and issue #20 of Marvel Comics’ Cable (1993).”
The new EP, which follows Wicca Phase Springs Eternal’s 2023 self-titled full-length, was recorded with engineer Matt Schimelfenig (Spirit of the Beehive, Golden Apples, Slaughter Beach, Dog). “I wanted to make the most organic sounding album I could while using electronic production,” McIlwee said. “I’m always trying to figure out how to immerse the listener even more–whether that’s sonically or lyrically, and for these songs that meant reining things in and grounding them. I didn’t want to keep getting bigger and bigger, I wanted something looser and more lo-fi.”
