Russian Circles Unveil New Album ‘Nine’ with Single ‘Empath’

Chicago’s post-metal trio, Russian Circles, is back in the spotlight with the announcement of their new album titled Nine. After over two decades of crafting expansive instrumentals, the band continues to push musical boundaries, even as its members now reside across the country.

Bassist and keyboardist Brian Cook, who recently reunited with Botch and is active in SUMAC, calls Vashon Island home, while guitarist Mike Sullivan has settled in Los Angeles. Drummer Dave Turncrantz remains in Chicago, yet despite their geographical distances, the trio still unites to create and tour.

Fans can get a taste of what’s to come with the release of their new single, “Empath.” This track showcases the band’s signature sound, blending heavy riffs with atmospheric melodies, a hallmark of their extensive catalog. With their ability to evolve while staying true to their roots, Russian Circles is set to captivate audiences once again.
