Australian prog metal band CIRCLES are now streaming “Breaker”, their first track from their upcoming album, ‘The Last One’ in the form of a video. The brand new record will be released on August 31st, 2018!
The track “Breaker” is currently being premiered by Prog Magazine HERE
Guitarist Ted Furuhashi on the new single “Breaker”: “Breaker” was one of those songs that we wrote in 2 quick sessions. It’s almost like 2 different songs. I had a certain vibe I wanted for the first half, so I started writing the drum beat and consciously made them spread across a 4 bar measure instead a 1 bar loop. I then matched them with the bass and rhythm guitars, then layered the chorus guitar in-between the accents. The second half of the song is a classic CIRCLES riff I guess. We’ve been playing it live for a while now and feels great, so we can’t wait to play it on our up coming tours with TESSERACT around Australia, and overseas in UK/EU with CALIGULA’S HORSE and I BUILT THE SKY later on in the year!”
