Mount Eerie the project of multi-artist Phil Elverum, announces Night Palace, his new album under the name Mount Eerie, and first in five years, will drop on November 1st via P.W. Elverum & Sun label. The announcement follows lead singles “Broom of Wind” and “I Walk,” today Elverum releases the short & upbeat “I Saw Another Bird.” On the track, Elverum explains: “Behind the dry smirk of the title (sequelling out from A Crow Looked At Me) there are huge feelings that get opened. We are ridiculous little people toiling on the ground, but the sublime darts around above us always. We can pause, chill, and resume the conversation with the big unknown. This song tells how, in a toe tapping way.”

The album is described as  a return to the world of the Microphones’ the Glow pt. 2 (2001) and the many thickly embroidered Mount Eerie universes that have followed. Smashed tape, breathing air organs, crackling tube amps and a welcome living reality just outside the open window all entwine to push the definition of what’s “home” and what’s “studio”, of what’s a “song” and what’s at the heart of the unmediated idea itself.

The vinyl release of Night Palace will come as two LPs wrapped in a poster (62″x43″) packed with imagery and fully annotated lyrics. As always, this physical version is considered the official “full” embodiment of this work.
