More than six years removed from his last solo outing, Plays "High Gospel", Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Thee Silver Mt. Zion co-founder Efrim Manuel Menuck has now shared a follow-up effort titled Pissing Stars, and you can hear the entire thing right now.
Arriving today through through Constellation, Pissing Stars runs nine tracks in length and was inspired by the brief romance of television personality Mary Hart and Mohammed Khashoggi, the son of a Saudi arms dealer.
In a statement, Menuck wrote, "this record was made in dark corners between 2016 and 2017. a very rough pair of years, shot thru with fatigue, depression, despair, and too many cigarettes and too much booze. but also = the giddiness of enervation, and the strange liberation of being emptied – borne aloft and carried by the drift."
