The Dig premieres another new track, 'Astronaut' Posted on January 26th, 2017

The Dig have released another new single called 'Astronaut', ahead of Bloodshot Tokyo's release next week. The track premiered today via Ones to Watch, where frontman Emile shared some insight on the inspiration behind it:

I wrote the lyrics to Astronaut with David in the middle of the night out on a boat on a lake up in Connecticut last summer. It’s a song about two people that can’t see one another for what they actually are, they only see the framework of something foreign. Two people that are connected but not quite calibrated. One experiences the other the way an alien would experience a spaceman, the right experiences the left (and vice versa), a dog experiences a turtle etc. Now seems like an appropriate time to set it out into the universe.”

Listen to 'Astronaut' below, and be sure to catch The Dig on their North American tour this Spring!

For a limited time, tickets can be bundled with digital and physical pre-orders of Bloodshot Tokyo. For a full list of dates and to buy tickets, head to TheDigMusic.com.
