Recorded in February 2022 with producer Chris Edrich (TesseracT, Leprous, The Ocean Collective), 'Meanwhile' chronicles the best & worst aspects of humanity.

Norway's inventive Rock mavericks LEPROUS return with their seventh studio album, "Aphelion". Although unmistakably the work of the same band that made "Pitfalls" in 2019, "Aphelion" immediately stands out as a radical statement: Veering from some of the most intense material of their career to some of the most delicate music in the LEPROUS career, "Aphelion" is an album of beautifully crafted and meticulously arranged mini-masterworks. Recorded at three different studios (Ghost Ward / Sweden, Ocean Sound Recordings / Norway and and Cederberg Studios / Norway), mixed by Adam Noble (Placebo, Biffy Clyro, Nothing But Thieves) and mastered by Robin Schmidt (The 1975, Placebo, The Gaslight Anthem, etc.), "Aphelion" is available from InsideOutMusic as limited Mediabook CD with two bonus tracks, as Standard Jewelcase CD and as Gatefold 2LP on 180gr. vinyl with two bonus tracks and the entire album on CD as bonus.

The Signal Heard Throughout Space will be the full-length debut for drummer Dan Silver, and the band's first release with keyboardist Sean Gallagher. On the new album, PARIUS deftly combines the cohesive songwriting of bands like Mastodon and Opeth with the eccentricities of bands like Mr. Bungle and The Mars Volta. Produced with the illustrious and Grammy-nominated Jamie King, the record is a bona fide 60-minute rock opera more than twice as lengthy as 2018’s The Eldritch Realm.

Nothing can turn back the tides of time or stop their inexorable forward grind, but music can always be relied upon to make the journey more enjoyable.
