NUMENOREAN: Premiere "Thirst" Single Via Stereogum
June 14, 2016
Canadian post-black metal shooting stars Numenorean are unleashing the second bewildering song taken from their forthcoming debut album 'Home', which will be out in stores worldwide on July 22nd.
The track "Thirst" is now exclusively streaming via Stereogum at the link below.

Regarding the new song, Numenorean bassist Rhys Friesen comments: "Proceeding from the first track "Home", we explore deeper into a more cognizant existentialism. As we gain knowledge in life that dreadful awareness tightens. 'Thirst' deals with the loss of stability one experiences when the promises of tired religions and philosophies fail to provide any real comfort. As knowledge and logic chisel away at superstition and faith, the promises made to us as children rot and fester in our minds. Once again as a child wandering through the chaos of one's own mind. This spiritual vertigo can result either in complete mental collapse or the first courageous step into the abyss."
Numenorean have previously revealed artwork and track-list of "Home", which can both be viewed below. As this album cover may cause controversy and be regarded offensive by some viewers (an extensive explanation for its artistic meaning is given by the band below), we are also offering the neutral slipcase cover.
