New Noise Magazine is pleased to share the new song of the Portuguese experimental rock band Vircator. They return with their third, full length album on October 4th via Raging Planet. On their upcoming record Arcano the four-piece collective takes a new step on experimenting dimensional dramatic instrumentals, searching for new sounds, emotions and textures, and exploring the polarity of quiet and loud, complexity and simplicity, ugliness and beauty to the same time.
Vircator’s sound is a powerful and emotional ride that takes you deep into the human conscience, balanced by calm and sweeping moments. But Arcano is even more than just an emotional introspect searching: It’s inspired by the cult of the plants and spiritual cure of the human conscience according to the ancestry.
“The acknowledgment of the plant power and spirituality is numb, and we wanna invite you on a trip to the past where our ancestry lived together with mother earth,“ the band explains.
Co-produced by renowned Pedro Correia at Studio B, Vircator were able to capture this broad tonal palette and wide array of emotional motifs into a powerful journey through the tumultuous corners of human existence. Today the band is streaming a brand new single to the track Burdock, showcasing the band’s complexity and various talent for finest experimental prog-rock!
“We are proud to present Burdock, a fast and moody track out of the incoming album, Arcane. This song reflects Arcane is a sonic journey to the oracle of the Druid’s sacred plants, fertile in imagination, wisdom and cure.” the band continues.
“Like the properties of burdock, this song represents the individual process of detoxify, cleanse and nourish mind and body, thus preparing and aiding ourselves in our life journey. We would like you to listen with your soul through this treasure of old knowledge and use that experience to remind our natural connection to Earth.
There’s anger, relief, pain, joy, darkness and light and other things for you to find out in these songs, you just have to listen and feel.”
