The Sleeping will be releasing a new album, titled “I Feel Like I’m Becoming A Ghost,” on July 28. Pre-orders are available via Kickstarter. Vocalist Douglas Robinson commented:

“Now that this is the original lineup, it feels like a massive evolution. I would describe this new record as a band that stayed true to who they are while completely reshaping the approach to their sound. This record feels way more focused from every angle, but it’s us at its core. We were never a band who copied our influences. Everything that we put out is influenced by our love for music as a whole, and not just particular bands or artists.”

The band also added:

“It is with EXTREME EXCITEMENT, and without further hesitation- We will be releasing our LONG OVERDUE new album ‘I Feel Like I’m Becoming A Ghost’ on July 28th. We’re doing this entire release ourselves. We’ve already started the process, but we still need your help. We’ve created a KICKSTARTER, and are asking for your support.

With what has happened to us label-wise over the years, we decided to take control of our own narrative. This band is the most creative and revitalized we have felt in a very long time. We’re ready to show you all.

For this Kickstarter, we’ve created some tiers, including vinyl pre-orders, and special items, to give back to you and your donations as best as we possibly can.

We have always been a band that stayed true to ourselves, and this time is no different. We are exploring this new freedom of being a fully independent artist.

We hope you see these donations as more than transactional. We have been dancing with the idea of a Kickstarter for quite some time, and have finally decided that this is what will be best for our band, and for all of you. This feels like more of a direct, personal thank you for your love and support throughout these 20+ years of our history.

Thank you so much for everything you have done for us.

‘I Feel Like I’m Becoming A Ghost’ is going to be something truly special.
