The Antlers - the beloved band and recording project of Peter Silberman - have announced their eagerly awaited new album, Blight, arriving via Transgressive Records. This is their first new studio album in over four years, released on CD, and limited edition clear pink vinyl. Blight asks many questions without offering easy answers. Over the course of nine new songs, The Antlers' founder and primary songwriter Silberman reckons with our passively destructive tendencies - absent-minded pollution, unwitting wastefulness, and the inadvertent devastation of the natural world. But despite its heavy themes, Blight is far from a punishing listen. With its adventurous arrangements and persistent momentum, it plays more like an iridescent odyssey. The Antlers have kept busy over the last few years, touring with Okkervil River across US, UK & EU. They also released a collaborative live album in June of this year, and will carry out their own headline tour in support of Blight in 2026. First new studio album in 4 years from the acclaimed band Recorded over the course of a few years, with the lion's share tracked and produced in frontman Peter Silberman's home studio in upstate New York Previous media support includes Pitchfork (2 x Best New Albums), New York Times, Rolling Stone + more Previously performed on Jimmy Fallon, Live on KEXP and NPR Tiny Desk.[info sheet from distr.]
