Chicago instrumental progressive band Outrun the Sunlight are ecstatic to announce their new live album Terrapin (Live) available everywhere.
About this album
In summer of 2022, Outrun the Sunlight began the process of rehearsing their album "Terrapin" for a special one-off performance in their hometown of Chicago, IL. During which time the group could feel the momentum buzzing with how the rehearsals were going. So on a hunch, they hired a small film crew and a lighting director, and set out to capture their show in the highest-quality available to them.
Over the next several months, the band's guitarist, Austin Peters, would edit and mix the show, with the assistance of Audiotree engineer, Neil Strauch, to create a brand new live rendition of their beloved album, Terrapin, which was originally released in 2014.
Having never performed the last three songs, nor performed this album as a whole before, the recording is raw, unfiltered, live, and in-the-moment capture of the band's current line-up and what they each bring to the table under the Outrun the Sunlight umbrella.
Terrapin (Live) will be available to watch and stream worldwide on October 19, 2023.
Words about A Vast Field of Silence
I now (after listening to it for about a dozen times over the last week) feel confident enough to say that ‘A Vast Field of Silence’ is Outrun the Sunlight’s best album yet.
— Heavy Blog Is Heavy
This album is a musical masterpiece. It is crystal clear from the stunning opening track, Awareness, that Outrun The Sunlight are a group of artists who eat, sleep and breathe music.
— Metal Epidemic
Clever, always stimulating, exceptional and attractive, perilous and unforgettable. A Vast Field of Silence is an album everyone should lose themselves too.

Outrun The Sunlight fidget with the boundaries between atmospheric post-rock and djent, but there's more than just labels.
