Listen to "A Million Random Digits" by ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead
The newest track from ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead is streaming now, exclusively on Best Fit, ahead of the band's new record IX being released Monday (20 October).
Speaking about the track, the band said:
"A Million Random Digits - the title stolen from a book I found on one of those shelves in a guest house where backpackers are supposed to leave a book when they take one. Fortunately I'm not a backpacker so I'm not obligated to leave anything if I take one - which is also how I got a copy of Balthazar Gracian's Art of Worldly Wisdom (in it Gracian recommends allowing yourself one vice, and mine is stealing useful things like books). The lyrics were inspired by the Viking series I'd recently watched on the History Channel -actually I watched a pirated copy (yet another vice) because we don't get the History Channel out here. I felt a sense of connection to the idea of the Northmen being away from family while going a-raiding, similar to being away from family while working on a record - you end up killing about the same amount of people as well.”
"A Million Random Digits" comes swiftly on the back of "The Ghost Within", released last week.
You can pre-order the record here or here.
