TEXTURES - brand new track and the band's own
Dutch progressive technical metallers TEXTURES have released a second track of their forthcoming studio album, Dualism. "Reaching Home" is available for worldwide streaming now on RevolverMag.com.
TEXTURES drummer Stef Broks shares some insight on the track:
“The song is about finding a way back to innocence. The person speaking in the lyrics is struggling his way through life, passing by melancholic moments of looking back, clear moments of present time and hopeful moments of looking forward. Home is where this person's longing for; but does home lie in living, in only his thoughts, or in surrendering to passing away?”
Dualism will be released on September 23rd. The album was recorded at Split Second Sound Studios in Amsterdam with TEXTURES guitarist & producer Jochem Jacobs.
It can be pre-ordered at the Nuclear Blast Webshop.
Moreover, Renowned Dutch shoemaker Floris van Bommel has launched an exclusive limited edition TEXTURES sneaker. The shoe is limited to 75 pairs worldwide and is only available in limited amounts through the TEXTURES webshop.
Floris van Bommel is a 9th generation shoemaker within the family-owned shoe company van Bommel founded in 1734 by Adrianus van Bommel 42 years before the American Declaration of Independence was signed and 35 years before Napoleon Bonaparte was born. Since 1952, they have been purveyors to the royal Dutch household.
The sneaker will be released in support of the upcoming TEXTURES album, Dualism, which will see its release on September 23rd in Europe, South America, Australia & Asia and on September 27th in North America.
