Local band Juna will release a new album, the follow-up to last year’s Heteroglossia (Flagpole review), on Sept. 27 via Cohosh Records. Titled On Courage, the new album contains six tracks of sprawling, churning gloom-rock.
Drummer Sasha Schilbrack-Cole tells Flagpole the new record was recorded by engineer Ben Wills (Family and Friends, Of the Vine) and mastered by Joel Hatstat. That’s the cover art above.
In addition to the band’s established influences, the album introduces some exciting new flavors to its already complex post-rock mix. Shades of Laughing Stock-era Talk Talk, for instance, show up in the album’s contemplative opener, “On Patience.”
Below, watch the video for “On Patience”:
Juna plays the Caledonia Lounge on Saturday, Sept. 27.
