Agalloch - New Song Available For Streaming


American folk metallers Agalloch have made their new song "Faustian Echoes" available for streaming online at their Bandcamp page. The entire 21-minute epic track is the longest song ever written by the band and will be featured on their new EP titled Faustian Echoes, consisting of the one song, released through the band's own imprint, Dammerung Arts.

The EP will be available as a digital download at the Bandcamp site and the LP and CD versions will only be available at the shows during the dates on their North American tour (July 11th - August 11th) and will be available via mailorder after the tour.

Just wondering, it says at the top the song'll be available for download off bandcamp, but atm it's only up for streaming - does anyone know when it'll be available for download? Ps found a load of Agalloch songs I'd not previously encountered on their BC, result

I've listened to it three times and I have to say I like it. It sounds a lot darker then any of the bands previous material.

Music is somewhat different from their album realeses. A different approach to their sound, more expirimental i would say.. Enjoyed the music, not enjoyed the talking parts... Would had better atmosphere without 'em imo...

The physical (vinyl and CD) version is being released on the upcoming U.S. tour so I suspect it will be available for download around then.

Exactly. They use their EPs for more experimental wanderings while their full-lengths are more "restricted" to a predominantly metal sound.

It's basically a condensed version of Pale Folklore with some spoken word passages capped off by an intense melodic semi-climax leading into a purely acoustic/spoken word outro.

Hard to say if I'm impressed at all at the moment. Very simple stuff and drawn out immensely for seemingly no reason.

Great song. Should hold me over until the next LP, which I'm guessing will not be out until 2014ish.

Pretty solid, sounds like their older EPs. Unnecessarily long (it could easily be 3 or 4 songs to the same effect). But, as usual, I think the sound clips add to the atmosphere, just like The White.

I'm very satisfied by this release. I'm looking forward to seeing them live very soon. Is anyone looking forward to seeing "Faustian Echoes" live?
