Supergroup, The Sound Of Animals Fighting, has made their grand return today. The group, who previously released APESHIT in December 2022, has unveiled their six-minute anthem, “Lady Of The Cosmos,” with an official music video. Their latest offering effortlessly weaves in psychedlic sonics and math rock-fueled guitar lines with urgent screams à la Anthony Green. Frankly, each Sound Of Animals Fighting track is in a league of its own.
Excitingly, “Lady Of The Cosmos” is just one track off of their forthcoming LP, The Maiden, due out September 12 via Born Losers Records. This marks their first full-length record release since 2008’s The Ocean And The Sun.
The artists share that the new track “marks the emotional and narrative pivot point of The Maiden—a mythic journey through revolution, transcendence, and memory. At the heart of this track lies the maiden, the album’s central figure, who meets her prophesied fate at the blade of the guillotine. As her physical form is severed, her spirit ascends, untethered, spiraling into the cosmos. It is here—at the edge of death and eternity—that Side A ends. The second half of the album begins where she reawakens: no longer flesh, but memory itself, echoing through the celestial collective that binds all things. We wanted to pinpoint the juxtaposition of that which is haunting, beautiful, and brutally serene. ‘Lady of the Cosmos’ is the hinge between mortality and myth.”
