The Links is set to release the album, “Outside,” on Oct 06, 2023. This psychedelic masterpiece also serves as a reintroduction to the band, showcasing a fresh sonic direction that will captivate Deftones, Tame Impala, and Radiohead fans.
“Outside” arrives five years after their last album, “But Then: The Links,” and it’s worth the wait. The record’s overall sound leans more toward their 2020 EP, Made for Life, but catapults their sound into uncharted territory. The result is an enthralling blend of surf-guitar-infused space rock that’s mesmerizing and mind-expanding.
With nine tracks clocking in at just over 33 minutes, “Outside” is a tightly crafted sonic journey. Each song feels like a chapter in an interstellar adventure, with the band’s signature sound evolving into a cosmic entity. The lyrical themes traverse the realms of human existence, perfectly complementing the ethereal music.
Standout tracks like “Calice” and “Contradiction” showcase The Links’ ability to craft intricate sonic landscapes that transport listeners to distant galaxies. Meanwhile, “Excess” and “We Got Time” offer a sense of introspection and wonder that lingers long after the final notes fade.
The Links have crafted a sonic masterpiece that demands to be heard. Don’t miss the chance to experience the mind-bending journey of “Outside” and catch them live as they take their cosmic sounds across the country and beyond.
