released April 4, 2020

In the Fall of ‘96, while recording at Silverbolt Studios (NYC), the band decided to pursue an improvised riff. They hammered out the song in one take with no rehearsals — letting their instincts guide them.

The instrumental sketch became a footnote in the band’s short history. And yet, it continued to haunt their memories for many years.

Then in 2020, energized by the 25th anniversary of their formation, Closer decided to finish the song. Since the original ADAT stems had been lost to time, the original mix-down was used to create a new base track over which freshly minted vocals were recorded.

And so, Closer presents A Further Shore, finally ending its twenty-four year orbit— two dozen times around the sun — to land now, for your enjoyment.
