PILE ANNOUNCE FALL TOUR DATES + SHARE "LOWERED RAINBOW"

Posted on February 9th, 2023

Pile share a video for their dynamic new single “Lowered Rainbow,” the final preview of their anticipated new album, All Fiction, out next Friday, February 17th via Exploding In Sound.

“Musically, this one took a bunch of different shapes before it landed the way it did on the record,” Rick Maguire explains. “The structure of the song didn't really change much from when it was written so most of the alterations made were textural, and we pushed it further than a lot of other songs we have. Lyrically, it's about cults, conspiracy theories, and the trend toward increasingly imaginative beliefs about reality.”

All Fiction is an ornate, carefully paced study on the subjectivity of perception, the data-shaping despotism of big tech, and the connections between anxiety and death. In its most vital moments, it’s also a resolute recommitment to the restorative significance of art and imagination. Alongside the blistering drums and scorched-earth riffs that first galvanized Pile’s dedicated fanbase, the band has incorporated elegiac strings, mystifying vocal corrosions, and haunting synths.

Additionally, Pile have announced a fall tour in support of All Fiction, with more dates to be announced soon. The band is also playing 5 east coast record release shows starting late February and have an EU tour in the spring. All dates below.
