Stuckfish Shares Video for Sarah Bernhardt-Inspired Shadows and Moonbeams

British progressive rockers Stuckfish have shared a video for the Shadows and moonbeamsthe first new music from the band’s upcoming album IV.

The band will release their new album via White Knight Records on September 11. It is the band’s first new album since signing to the progressive rock label in 2022.

“We had to raise the bar even higher in terms of freshness of ideas, concepts, themes and production,” says composer/producer Adrian Fisher. “I think the bar was raised musically by using more acoustic guitars, orchestral instruments, additional vocal harmonies and incorporating not only our shortest song to date, but our longest as well.”

“The challenge for me was to create lyrics that fit the ambition we had for the album, and to float them on fresh melodies that allowed me to express myself vocally,” adds singer Phil Stuckey. “That meant we had to take our time and let new ideas emerge naturally. The music often came first and was so good that I just couldn’t waste a single word.”

“It was a daunting prospect to follow up our third album, Days of Innocence with new songs for IV“We had to raise the bar even higher in terms of freshness of ideas, concepts, themes and production,” Fisher adds. “I feel like the bar has been raised even higher, resulting in our best album to date.”

IV will soon be available for pre-order on White Knight and Stuckfish’s Bandcamp pages.
