Cass McCombs – “Sleeping Volcanoes”

Cass McCombs - Tip Of The Sphere

Cass McCombs’ last solo album, Mangy Love, was released in 2016. Last week, he shared a new video titled “Tip Of The Sphere," in which he reads spoken-word passages. Today, McCombs announces a new album to be out 2/8, plus a run of tour dates. The announcement comes with the album's lead single, "Sleeping Volcanoes." It's led by an appropriately hazy guitar riff and patched-together lyrics, edging on stream of consciousness. Listen below
