The new single “Eats The Light” by Lotus is officially here! The band premiered the track yesterday in Billboard, explaining that they are in the finishing stages of releasing a brand new album. Not only that, but the album will feature vocals on every song for the first time ever.
Frequent collaborator Gabe Otto (Pan Astral) lends his vocals to the new track, “Eats the Light”, and the rest of the album includes vocals from other friends like Mutlu and Steve Yutzy-Burkey.
With 18 already recorded tracks, we can expect 10 to make it on the album, with the rest following in an EP, according to bassist, writer, and sampler Jesse Miller. According to Miller, “We just wanted to have an album that felt unified in that way… We like writing songs for singers, but since it’s not a big part of our live show it’s never something that we’ve ever gone all in on for a full album. To me it felt like natural progression from other things we’re doing. It’s not that much different than bringing somebody in to play a saxophone. You can still hear that Lotus sound; It never feels to me like it’s Lotus featuring somebody else.” We approve!
