Hear a new song from Agriculture, “In the House of Angel Flesh”
Agriculture have shared another new song from their upcoming double EP, Living Is Easy/The Circle Chant, which is out May 3 via Flenser. Today the California black metal group shares the soaring and intense “In the House of Angel Flesh,” which you can check out below.
The group said in a statement that the song “…builds on themes of community care and interrelation that we’ve explored elsewhere. It’s an opportunity to be more direct both lyrically and musically and represent moments of both care and struggle we see in our daily lives: friends who can’t seem to escape certain negative patterns, friends who help each other get by in material ways, and friends helping friends who can’t see a way forward. Our goal was to excite and uplift while carrying some of the dissonance that comes with living in this world.”
The band is also on tour this summer with their Flenser labelmates Ragana, who last year released the excellent Desolation’s Flower.
Living Is Easy/The Circle Chant follows Agriculture’s self-titled debut album from last year. It’s on our list of the 50 Best Albums of 2023.
