NOCTOURNIQUET is an album of inspired, unexpected moves and uncanny invention, following a considerably darker, more menacing strain of pop, with synthesizers figuring heavily in the productions. It is the sound of a band discovering new ways to do familiar things, renewing their commitment to their mission, finding fresh inspiration a decade in, and shaking off any complacency that might have come with ten years of acclaim and success.

Leaving a creative impact and making an artistic statement has always been the motivation behind the collaboration of Omar Rodríguez-López and Cedric Bixler-Zavala. The duo has been making music together for nearly 30 years. During this time, the two of them have gone through a prime example of musical evolution: they never stood still, instead their art matured and grew steadily.
