Boston’s CAVE IN makes a highly anticipated return with their Relapse Records debut, Heavy Pendulum, their first full studio record in over a decade. Today, CAVE IN shares the second single “Blinded By A Blaze” with an accompanying video featuring album artwork by Richey Beckett combined with live footage by Frank Huang from 3 sold-out shows at Saint Vitus Bar/Brooklyn NY in 2021.
Guitarist/Vocalist Stephen Brodsky comments: “I had the idea for ‘Blinded By A Blaze’ during the Final Transmission days, but it really came to life for Heavy Pendulum. There were 5 or 6 songs in the initial batch of demos that I sent to the band at the beginning of the writing process, but ‘Blinded’ was the one that created a call to action – it’s basically what sold JR, Adam & Nate on writing a new Cave In album. Lyrically, it’s a sonic photograph of a strange magical moment that I had while driving along the Pacific Coast Highway during the golden hour, and the feeling of looking back on it years later – something everyone should try to experience at least once in their lifetime.”
Heavy Pendulum is out May 20 on DLX 2xLP/2xLP/CD/CS/Digital. Physical pre-orders are available via Relaps.com. Digital Downloads/Streaming HERE.
