Father John Misty has previewed the eight-track ‘Mahashmashana’ with the sprawling single ‘Screamland’. The record will also feature the previously teased song ‘Josh Tillman And The Accidental Dose’, July’s ‘I Guess Time Just Makes Fools Of Us All’, and ‘She Cleans Up’.
The follow-up to 2022’s ‘Chloë And The Next 20th Century’ was co-produced by Tillman and Drew Erickson. A brief description of the project reads: “After a decade being born, Josh Tillman is finally busy dying. ‘Mahashmashana’ is the sixth album by Father John Misty.”
In a glowing five-star review of ‘Chloë…’, NME said that the album “showcases what Tillman’s imagination can do when it is set free to explore new and unpredictable sonic paths”.
It continued: “‘Olvidado (Otro Momento)’, a shimmying bossa nova track that sees him sing in Spanish, never settles entirely, expanding its woozy ambience into a thick beat made up of quietly vast percussive flourishes. It’s a perfect example of how nothing on this album ends up quite where you’d expect it – including the ever-evolving artist who made it.”
