Ben Frost & Daníel Bjarnason's SÓLARIS gets release date
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater August 31st, 2011

Back in November 2010 it was announced that the Icelandic-based Australian Ben Frost and the Icelandic composer Daníel Bjarnason were to score a novel by Polish author Stanislaw Lem. It was confirmed at the time that the resulting album, entitled SÓLARIS, would get a release through the Bedroom Community record label, and now the release date and a few other things have been confirmed. It's out on November 7 and is something we look forward to very much.

Below you'll find the album tracklisting and artwork:

  1. We Don't Need Other Worlds, We Need Mirrors
  2. Simulacra I
  3. Simulacra II
  4. Snow
  5. Reyja
  6. Cruel Miracles
  7. Hydrogen Sulfide
  8. Unbreakable Silence
  9. You Mean More To Me Than Any Scientific Truth
  10. Saccades
  11. Venia

Solaris Cover

You can also watch a teaser for the album below. This seems to be the "done thing" these days, and who are we to argue?
