Montreal, Canada’s Tumbleweed Dealer, the enigmatic musical project led by Sebastien Painchaud, is set to make a triumphant return with their highly anticipated fourth studio album, “Dark Green”. After an eight-year hiatus, the band is ready to unveil their most ambitious and genre-defying work to date, scheduled for release on February 7, 2025. “Dark Green” represents a significant evolution in Tumbleweed Dealer’s sound, pushing the boundaries of their bluesy, desert-rock roots into uncharted territories. They comment on this evolution:
“Our first 2 albums created the color palette with which we paint. The third album showed that these colors can paint very different pictures. We didn’t need to be a stoner/psychedelic rock to still sound like us. On this latest album, we took all these different directions and pushed our music even further. We streamlined it into a unique experience that still maintained the original spirit of the band’s sound.”
The album’s artwork, revealed today, captures the essence of the “Dark Green” experience. This visual representation sets the stage for the album’s themes of nature, introspection, and the blurring lines between reality and imagination.
To give fans a taste of what’s to come, Tumbleweed Dealer has released a tantalizing teaser for “Dark Green.” This brief audio-visual snippet offers a glimpse into the lush, atmospheric soundscapes and intricate compositions that await listeners. Fans can expect an intricate blend of blues, math rock, post-rock, and various other influences, all woven together into a cohesive and immersive musical tapestry. It is recommended for fans of Camel, Toe, and Opeth.
