Today, New Jersey-based group Pinegrove share their new album 11:11, alongside a new video for the mini-epic lead track ‘Habitat.’ A robust, textural masterpiece, ‘Habitat‘ was inspired by long drives around upstate New York with dilapidated houses covered in plantlife spotting the landscape along the way.
Of the song, singer/guitarist Evan Stephens Hall stated, “‘Habitat’ collages imagery from across the 2020’s – monuments to the past torn down, vandalised, and thrown to the waves, making much needed room for new symbols to ornament our world with.”
11:11 sees Pinegrove build on their poetic blend of indie rock, folk, and alt-country, along with Hall’s earnest, open-hearted vocals and his penchant for writing emotionally direct, literate, introspective lyrics. Here, political and socially conscious themes permeate, and as he evolves as an artist, his resolve has only grown stronger – and more purposeful. 11:11 weaves these critiques through an accessible and sensitive work, which manages to be pointed without ever being didactic.
