William Basinski has shared a second track from his upcoming Lamentations album - "Tear Vial".
The near-five-minute new single follows on from last month's lead track "O, My Daughter, O, My Sorrow".
Both songs will feature on Basinski's upcoming album Lamentations, which will follow on from last year's On Time Out Of Time LP.
According to a press release, the album was "constructed from tape loops and studies from Basinski’s archives - dating back to 1979", and marks his second LP of archival sounds to be released this year, following March's Hymns of Oblivion.
"Tear Vial" is out now. William Basinski's Lamentations album will be released 13 November via Temporary Residence, and is available to pre-order now.
