William Basinski has a new album on the way via Temporary Residence Ltd., titled Lamentations.

The album, set to drop on November 13, is a 12-track collection of songs Basinski crafted from archival tape loops dating back to 1979. Like much of his work, especially his lauded The Disintegration Loops, Lamentations is filled with a mournful beauty and “ominous grief,” the label explains, and that sense of loss “lingers like an emotional vapor.”

Lamentations continues a busy run for Basinski, following on the heels of recent collaborations with Richard Chartier (Something From The Pink House) and Preston Wendel (To Feel Embraced, as Sparkle Division). He’s also released a gothic 11-track album recorded at Arcadia Studios in New York City from 1989 to 1991 (HYMNS OF OBLIVION).

Basinski’s last album for Temporary Residence Ltd., his regular label home, was On Time Out Of Time, released in March 2019.
