Red Sparowes Releases New Album, Headlines North American Tour

Los Angeles epic, heavy quintet Red Sparowes releases its third full-length album today, just days after launching an extensive North American headlining tour. The disc, titled The Fear Is Excruciating, But Therein Lies The Answer, is released via Sargent House today, April 6th, 2010. Red Sparowes will be supported on sections of the tour by Doomriders, Caspian, and Fang Island. See complete tour dates and album track listing below.

Check out the first MP3 track off the album, “Giving Birth To Imagined Saviors” posted HERE. A video teaser for the album has also been posted HERE.

Red Sparowes’ latest offering, The Fear is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer, began with the larger existential pondering of truth, faith, order, causality, and the innate demand for an understanding of the larger world around us. While Red Sparowes’ majesty is hardly in need of story, the provision of the larger metaphor yields a heightened depth and gravity to their work.
