Wicca Phase Springs Eternal releases his self-titled new full-length, on June 2nd via Run For Cover Records. The project is led by Pennsylvania-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, Adam McIlwee. Wicca Phase Springs Eternal has also announced two intimate album preview shows in Los Angeles and Brooklyn.

With the announcement, McIlwee has shared the album’s sweeping first single, “Moving Without Movement” and it’s accompanying video. The track finds Wicca Phase Springs Eternal delving into cinematic synth pop, with a shimmering bass line and longing melodies that would sound right at home being performed at The Roadhouse on an episode of Twin Peaks. It’s the perfect introduction to the deeply unique universe that Wicca Phase Springs Eternal offers.

Wicca Phase Springs Eternal has been a fittingly enigmatic umbrella for McIlwee’s work, but with his self-titled album he extends a guiding hand through the mists to welcome new listeners and longtime fans alike. Working closely with Darcy Baylis and Ben Greenberg, McIlwee focused on going deeper than ever into the world-building aspect of WPSE, while also expanding his sound in new directions. Drawing on elements of house, trance, new wave, and more, Wicca Phase Springs Eternal is bursting with mood and mystery, conjuring detailed imagery and cutting emotion in equal measure. It’s an album that sums up what McIlwee does best: capturing both the romanticism and inscrutability of life’s biggest feelings. “I probably say the word ‘mystery’ a hundred times on this record,” he explains. “That’s what I’m trying to bottle up–this idea of something that’s hard to know, but enticing.” When Wicca Phase Springs Eternal ends, you find yourself compelled to play it again–to enter the portal and once more find out where it leads.
